Get Expert Calc Based Physics Help: From Basics to Challenging Problems"

[izskinner3]

Hi! So I am in my second semester of calc based physics and I'm really struggling. I have a solid calculus background so I don't think my math is the problem. It seems to me like in class my professor is teaching the basics well but then I get to the homework and it's way harder than what we do in class. I need a supplement of some kind that has medium practice problems, if that makes sense. Something that easily guides me from the basics to harder problems. Any suggestions?

you are not the only victim to it , there might be other students who are in the same problem . I suggest you to do group study along with them and do discussions . Because two heads (or more than one heads) are better than a single one.

The problem you've described is typical. In the textbook, are there example problems? Those usually are a "bridge" between the easy lecture problems and then difficult homework problems. Learning how to make that leap is the most difficult part of a physics class and takes lots of practice. If you get stuck on a difficult question, try asking other students in the class, going to the professor's office hours, asking a TA, or seeing if you can get tutoring (our physics club offered homework help for calc-based physics, at least).
