Looking for a good Prob Solving Physics book

AI Thread Summary
For those studying University Physics and seeking additional problem-solving practice, the discussion highlights the need for resources beyond the textbook "Sears & Zemansky's U Phy." A recommended resource is "3000 Solved Problems in Physics," which is recognized for its extensive collection of problems with detailed solutions. Additionally, "Physics By Example" by W. G. Rees is mentioned as another valuable book for practice. These resources can enhance understanding and problem-solving skills in physics.

This year I will be taking University Physics. Besides understanding the concepts, I also need to practice solving problems. Although, my textbook (Sears & Zemansky's U Phy) provides some examples with solutions throughout the chapter, I would like more. Does anyone know of a good book with problems and detailed solutions to them? Or anything in this ballpark? Thank you in advance for your help.

Thread '"WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY?" A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
