Recommendations for Physics book?
Hi, I'm taking a college level calculus based physics course and I need some help. My professor teaches his course out of packets that he makes instead of a textbook and the packets are generally horrible. I'm completely lost and the professor isn't available during the summer so I was looking for suggestions on a book, tape, workbook, anything that could help me out. I'm not looking for a book with solved problems...more of a textbook-like book that explains things. The packets are often full of typos and never explain anything. One of the packets asked me to draw a ray diagram for a lens on the first page even though we never covered lenses before at all. Just to give you an idea of what I am dealing with. I want to understand the material and how everything works. I'd appreciate any recommendations that you could give me. Thanks a lot...
