.Learning Fluid Dynamics on my Own

AI Thread Summary
Learning Fluid Dynamics independently can be effectively supported by Landau and Lifshitz's "Course of Theoretical Physics Volume 6," which is noted for its comprehensive coverage. While the book is a solid foundation, supplementary resources may enhance understanding and provide diverse perspectives. Engaging with additional texts or online materials could be beneficial for deeper insights. The discussion also references a related thread for further book recommendations. Overall, combining this primary resource with supplementary materials is advisable for a well-rounded grasp of fluid dynamics.

Hello everyone this is my first post.
I'm trying to learn Fluid Dynamics On my own.
I'm already a Physics Student,I have a Book for Landu And Lif****z Course of Theoretical Physics Volume 6 (Fluid Dynamics),SO far i see the book very good,but i was wondering if it's enough to learn it from this book,would i need something else or it's good?

thx

I have browsed the table of contents to Landau and Lifsh!tz, Fluid Mechanics, Second Edition : Volume 6 (Course of Theoretical Physics), and it seems reasonably comprehensive.

You may also wish to refer to this thread which contains additional books.

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
