AI Thread Summary
Starting to learn physics as a high school freshman can be overwhelming due to the vast amount of material available. The Feynman Lectures on Physics are recommended as a foundational resource, particularly the first chapters, which may be accessible even for beginners. However, a solid grasp of the necessary math is crucial for understanding physics concepts. Khan Academy is suggested as a helpful platform for learning math and science fundamentals. Engaging with these resources can provide a strong start in physics education.

Hear me out, I know most of you people here probably know a lot more then me about physics, but I'm eager to learn this stuff. I'm only a freshman in high school (9th grader) and I don't know were to start, there's so many things in physics

thanks, ill look for it.
 
Since you're a 9th grader, you probably won't know a lot of the math in some areas of physics. I suggest this site for anything math/science related though:

khanacademy.org
 
So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
