SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the need for online resources that provide practical examples and exercises in physics, specifically for a student preparing for a recuperation exam. The user seeks materials that focus on problem-solving rather than theoretical content, particularly in areas such as Newton's Laws, Work and Energy, Circular Motion, Electric Interactions, and Magnetic Interactions. The user expresses difficulty in applying theoretical concepts to solve problems, indicating a need for targeted practice resources.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of Newton's Laws and their applications
  • Familiarity with concepts of Work and Energy
  • Knowledge of Electric and Magnetic Interactions
  • Proficiency in calculus and vector analysis
NEXT STEPS
  • Research online platforms offering physics problem sets, such as Khan Academy or Physics Classroom
  • Explore resources focused on Newton's Laws and their applications in real-world scenarios
  • Investigate interactive simulations for Electric and Magnetic Interactions, such as PhET Interactive Simulations
  • Practice solving problems related to Work and Energy using example problems from OpenStax Physics
USEFUL FOR

Students preparing for physics exams, educators seeking supplementary materials for teaching, and anyone looking to enhance their problem-solving skills in physics concepts.

Hi there people, I have been in the physics course of my school, tought I not aprovate it.

Then I need present a exam of "recuperation", I will like to know if you have a book/resource (online) because I can't buy for the moment and the exam is soon, then I need to see examples :), I think now that I have studied I understand somewhat good some concepts then I guess I not need more "theory" but get hands on examples and exercises, that also mean that a large text will not help much because no time for read it.I'm litle rusty at calculus and vectors, but I think I can pass over... the not much problem about that. With me specially what fail is how to solve the problem, that is something like "I understand what you whant, I understand the 'factors(concepts in theory)' in the problem, but don't know how exactly plug them on"... for example, now I'm trying to solve a problem in electric field, is the one that is a semicircle with a +Q in the midle and -Q in the other midle... I know that I have a [tex]d\theta[/tex] and a diferential of the circle is [tex]dl[/tex] and when come to the part of get the relation of [tex]dl = \lambda dQ =[/tex] then I get stuck, I can't "see" the correct relation :), I guess is some like [tex]dl = \lambda rd\theta[/tex] now I must obtain what is [tex]d\theta[/tex]...Anyway, I guess you see th point, I understand at rudimentary the concepts (I know what you are asking and what I will answer), but the part of solve the problem isn't right.I think what I will like to see examples and problems are about:

1) Newton's Laws. (tensors, friction,
2) Work and energy.
3) A little of circular motion and kinetic.
4) Electric interactions:
  • coulomb's law
  • electric flow
  • gauss's law and
  • electric potential)
5) magnetic interactions:
  • Lorentz Force
  • Biot-Savat's Law
  • Ampere's Law
I hope if you have any feed-back on such a reference, I not need the theory I guess, I need focus more in the problem solving.

Thanks for your attention.

I haven't finded nothing similar, tought some exersices here and there but that dosent help much ;).

OK, I guess then I will need ask the questions directly here instead.
