Which textbook should I use for self studying calc-based physics?
Okay! Thank you! I've been doing a couple of H problems but it looks like i'll do more of them, since there arent that many to begin with. Additionally, there's a section with "additional problems" but they don't have a difficulty ranking; does that mean the ones at the last page are usually the...- xerz

Which textbook should I use for self studying calc-based physics?
Okay! That sounds good. I have the Young & Freedman 12th edition physically, but I also have online copies of the others, so there is no mandatory book to use. I was just not sure if there were meaningful differences in them; such as if the problems in one are too easy and don't set you up for...- xerz

Which textbook should I use for self studying calc-based physics?
I like this ideology, and I've gotten a similar answer from many, so I'll likely just learn the concepts from the textbook that is most convenient, and then do problems from all 3, depending on what my goals are. Additionally, the question "What are the basic chapters and/or sections in a...- xerz
