Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around resources for learning physics, particularly for a high school student who is eager to start studying before taking a formal course. Participants share suggestions for books, websites, and videos that could aid in self-study.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • Lennart Bendfeldt expresses a desire to learn physics before taking a formal class and seeks recommendations for resources.
  • One participant shares a link to MIT's OpenCourseWare for classical mechanics as a potential resource.
  • Another participant points out the existence of a forum section dedicated to learning materials, suggesting it as a valuable resource for Lennart.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the availability of resources but do not discuss the effectiveness or suitability of specific materials for Lennart's learning style.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not delve into the specific types of physics Lennart might be interested in or the depth of material appropriate for his current level.

Who May Find This Useful

High school students interested in self-studying physics, educators looking for resource recommendations, and anyone seeking introductory physics materials.

Hello, first let me start by introducing myself, my name is Lennart Bendfeldt, i am in high school and I am a junior. I cannot take physics until next year but I really want to learn about it now.

What i am saying is, are there any books/websites, videos I can watch or read to learn physics? I'm very interested in physics after reading Michio Kaku's book physics of the impossible. You guys seem like a nice bunch and i was hoping you could help me with what to start with (:
