AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a user seeking problem sets for the Walter Lewin 8.01X physics lectures from MIT's OCW, which are available on YouTube. The user finds the lectures engaging but lacks the corresponding textbook for the course material. They express a desire for free problem sets to enhance their understanding. Another participant points out that while Lewin's assignments often reference an older edition of the textbook by Ohanian, they suggest exploring Ramamurti Shankar's Yale open course, which provides all assignments and video lectures online, offering a potential resource for additional practice.

Hello everyone,
i am currently bedridden and bored out of my mind , thus i have started to watch all of the Walter Lewin lectures that were removed from MIT's OCW(on youtube). Right now I'm doing 8.01X, the lectures are truly fascinating however all of the course work comes from a textbook that i do not own. I was wondering if anyone here had some problem sets that might go with this course. I would really love to freshen up my mind by doing some grunt work. anything really would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

yes however the assignments more often than not refer to the book used in the lectures. i was wondering if their was perhaps some free problems i could work through.
 
Lewin's lectures and assignments are from 1999. Thus, they refer to an older edition of Ohanian which should be quite inexpensive. I'm not 100% sure, but I think Lewin's assignments are from Ohanian's 1994 Principles of Physics.

As to the question you asked, Ramamurti Shankar's Yale open course Fundamentals of Physics has all of the assignments available online in the course materials at http://oyc.yale.edu/physics/phys-200. The video lectures are also available there and on YouTube.
