Revising for SPM General Physics: Recommended Books & Sites

AI Thread Summary
For revising General Physics for SPM, several recommended resources include specific books and online sites that provide comprehensive background reading. A notable resource mentioned is the Physics Forums link, which contains various General Physics materials. The HyperPhysics website is highlighted as particularly useful for understanding key concepts. These resources are aimed at enhancing study efficiency and providing structured information rather than searching randomly. Utilizing these recommendations can significantly aid in effective exam preparation.

thanks a lot
they did give me a chance for better reference than find blindly
 
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
