I want to learn cosmolgy very much,Like from the begining,Proper distance comoving distance how can we measure them then friedmann equations etc.
I know leonard susskind lectures but he is describing too general,I want more detail. Is there any other good video lectures...(I couldn't find) a book will also fine but video lectures are best for me.

I am really troubling to understand the rotational motion concept. Like angular accceleration,angular velocity torque ext. I don't know, I listened my professor's video lectures, I looked some online course pdfs but I need to learn the basics and I need more basic practice for simple understanding .
Any advice ? Thanks
or

I am studying Lineer Momentum. And I am not quite sure the understand the principles and basics of it. Is there any lecture video or note that I can understand better. Level should be undergrad freshman.

I really admire your ambition, but without a solid foundation you'll be in trouble sooner or later. Most likely sooner. My advice: study the physics curriculum at your (or any other) university and notice they all do classical mechanics, classical electrostatics, classical electrodynamics, optics, special relativity, introductory quantum mechanics, and build on those. At your age you can pick up things quickly and you don't seem to realize that laying sound foundations under a whacky building is nearly impossible.

Furthermore @ZapperZ 's advice is sound: work on exercises as much as you can and don't think they are wasting your time for a moment!

I am a freshman student in physics major.I just want to know for curious,Just learn some stuff getting simple ideas etc..I love cosmology...Its really early to underistand I know...I ll look all linkes that you shared.And Try to pick one and see I can understand or not.Even probably I ll not have a time for look in this semester.Maybe in summer
