AI Thread Summary
Canadian physics standards differ from U.S. standards, which can impact the preparation for the electrician apprentice program that requires knowledge in physics and math. The discussion highlights the need for resources covering topics like wave motion, geometric optics, kinematics, dynamics, energy, special relativity, static and dynamic friction, pendulum calculations, and the physics of rolling objects. There is a search for engaging online resources, particularly live audio discussions that cater to beginners, as traditional text-based learning can be less engaging. Recommendations include exploring courses by Ramamurti Shankar for a more interactive learning experience.

Canadian physics standards may be different then that of US Standards.

I am middle aged but wanted to try for the electrician apprentice program offered by the local technical collages. In order to be a apprentice, 11th grade physics and 11th grade math are pre requirements and I will be tested on them in june.

I am trying to find a site online that discusses area of Wave Motion and Geometric Optics; Kinematics; Dynamics; Energy; Special Relativity; , static and dynamic friction, pendium calculation of time, calculating time for a rolling object to reach bottom of a ramp and so on.

Also, are there live online audio discussions that talk about physics from a beginner standpoint?
Text learning is kind of boring but live sessions would be so much more interactive.

Thanks

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
