SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the need for resources that provide solutions to problems related to waves and oscillations, specifically highlighting the inadequacies of the book "Waves and Oscillations" by W.F. Smith. Users recommend Richard Feynman's "Lectures on Physics" as a valuable resource, particularly the section that includes problems with answers, available at http://www.feynmanlectures.info/exercises.html. The discussion emphasizes the importance of practical problem-solving examples to complement theoretical knowledge.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic physics concepts related to waves and oscillations.
  • Familiarity with Richard Feynman's "Lectures on Physics".
  • Ability to access and navigate online educational resources.
  • Basic problem-solving skills in physics.
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore Richard Feynman's "Lectures on Physics" for practical examples and exercises.
  • Research additional online resources that provide solutions for waves and oscillations problems.
  • Investigate supplementary textbooks that offer problem sets with solutions.
  • Join online forums or study groups focused on waves and oscillations for collaborative learning.
USEFUL FOR

Students struggling with waves and oscillations, educators seeking supplementary teaching materials, and anyone looking to enhance their problem-solving skills in physics.

Hi, my teacher is pretty bad at teaching, my book offers problems with no solutions and poor examples, and there is no solutions for the problems on the internets. Does anyone know a manual/pdf/website where I can find problems and solutions for waves and oscillations? I have read the book and everything but it is just too theoretical and doesn't say how to solve problems at all.

Geronimo -- Look for Feyman's "Lectures on Physics", available on the internet and also search for "Feyman's Lectures on Physics problems with answers" to find http://www.feynmanlectures.info/exercises.html

Which book is it? Then people won't embarrass themselves by recommending it to you. :olduhh:

But then I'm exposed to better physicist who understood better than me and know how to solve problems :nb)
