SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the book "IE Irodov," a compilation of physics problems that is highly regarded for its inspirational content. Participants express a consensus that while the problems are beneficial for high school students, they may not be suitable for undergraduate physics students who require more advanced problem-solving skills. Suggestions for alternative resources that better cater to undergraduate needs are requested, emphasizing the importance of logical thinking and mathematical ability in physics education.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with high school physics concepts
  • Understanding of problem-solving techniques in physics
  • Knowledge of physics Olympiad standards
  • Awareness of educational resources for undergraduate physics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research alternative problem books suitable for undergraduate physics, such as "University Physics" by Young and Freedman
  • Explore resources for physics Olympiad preparation to enhance logical thinking
  • Investigate advanced problem-solving techniques in physics
  • Review educational methodologies for teaching physics at the undergraduate level
USEFUL FOR

High school physics teachers, undergraduate physics students, and anyone seeking to enhance their problem-solving skills in physics education.

I have been solving problems from the famous book, "IE Irodov" for couple of days..It was really a terrific job for Mr.Irodov to compile such a huge set of wonderful problems which are very much inspirational.
I want to know about Mr. IE Irodov.. I have tried wikipedia.org and google as well..but I didn't find any relevant topic for his personal history (biography)..
I will be happy if I get to know about this person from you..thanks in advance..

My opinion is that those class of problems is good for high school people but not for undergraduate physics students. I think they should solve problems that improve their mathematical abilities and problems that force them to think logically in physic’s subjects. physics's Olympiad problems might be sufficient.

Dear friend
You said that Irodov's book is not suitable for undergraduates , so could you be nice to recommend some more sutable problem books for me .
Thank :)
