AI Thread Summary
Curiosity about the workings of the world, such as sound production and the nature of quarks and bosons, is common, but the desire to know everything can be frustrating. To satisfy this curiosity, engaging with foundational concepts in physics, neuroscience, and nuclear physics is essential. Beginners can start by exploring general science books available at public libraries, which can provide a solid introduction to various topics. While comprehensive knowledge is unattainable, resources like Wikipedia can help individuals learn a little about many subjects. For deeper understanding, formal education is necessary, especially for complex areas like quantum mechanics.

I am a very curious guy and I often wonder about how stuff around me works - like when I speak how does my mouth produce sound and how my ears interpret it,what are quarks and boson...I might learn later on but currently I don't know these things. Its a bit irritating for me to not know everything. Can anyone help?

Study everything.
 
If you really want to know what quarks and bosons are first learn what F=MA is or F=dp/dt.
 
classical field theory for sound waves
neuroscience for interpritation (I'm no expert so I'll just give the name of the whole field)
nuclear physics for quarks

I'm not sure what you're expecting to get here though..
 
You might try lobotomy. You'll never know everything anyway.

Why irritating?

Every public library has a general science section. It's usually possible to find a book on a given subject that is aimed at beginners. You can start there and work up to more sophisticated books.

You will never know everything. It isn't possible. However, if you like to know a little bit about a lot of stuff, I recommend Wikipedia.
I'm referring specifically to general knowledge, not being able to perform calculations in QM or something. If you want to do that, you're going to have to spend a lot of time doing formal education.
