Problems to work alongside IIT Classical phys. lecture videos

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking additional problem sets to complement the IIT Madras Lecture Series on Classical Mechanics available on YouTube. Users express interest in finding specific problems designed for the course or other relevant practice problems to reinforce their understanding of the theory. Additionally, there is a request for problem sets from the MIT OCW Classical Mechanics course by Walter Lewin, with a suggestion to consider purchasing an older edition of the textbook to access these resources. The conversation highlights the importance of practical exercises in mastering classical mechanics concepts.

I have been working through the IIT Madras Lecture Series on Classical Mechanics on Youtube. They are excellent so far but I was wondering if anyone could point me towards either some problems designed for the course specifically or some other problems that work well with it. I would like to practise the theory so it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Sam

In extension, is there anywhere I could find the problem sets from the MIT OCW Classical Mechanics course by Walter Lewin, as they look as though they could be good but I don't have the textbook for it. Thanks.
 
Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
