In summary, after completing Resnick-Halliday, it is recommended to read a book within the same subject area that builds upon the concepts covered. Some popular suggestions include "University Physics" by Young and Freedman, "Classical Mechanics" by Goldstein, and "The Feynman Lectures on Physics" by Feynman. If you struggled with certain concepts, "Fundamentals of Physics" by Halliday, Resnick, and Walker may provide more clarification. For practical applications, "Physics for Scientists and Engineers" by Serway and Jewett, "Introduction to Electrodynamics" by Griffiths, and "Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach" by Cengel and Boles are recommended.
