Hi,

I will go back to school next year to start studying physics. For the moment, I am learning/reviewing maths with Khan Academy and the book of Mary Boas.

Once I am good with the maths, I will start to review/learn physics (Khan Academy, Fundamental of Physics by Halliday and Resnick, Feynman's lecture).

I would like to know if you could recommend one or more books containing a lot of problems in Physics with the solutions.

Physics is a really wide topic so I guess I won't find a book with problems about everything related to physics. I tried to find some books and found some (apparently) really good like those one :

https://www.amazon.com/dp/0521449758/?tag=pfamazon01-20
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0071763465/?tag=pfamazon01-20

Basically, one book for High school, one for Undergraduate and one for Graduate physics would be great or one book that would cover everything. Should I try to find books with problems related to a particular topic like electromagnetism, optic, ... instead ?

I know that I could probably find problems to solve online but I travel a lot and I don't have access to a computer or even internet all the time so that's why I would prefer to find a book.

Thank you.

Thanks whyevengothere, I already found it after some research.
Thanks jedishrfu too, I'll have a look. I will probably focus on books with problems for high school and early unergraduate until next year.

the feynman lectures are now available online too and that's a good source of challenging problems.

Thanks, I am already reading that when I have some free time. :)
 
Thanks for this info
