What are the best books for theory experimental problems?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the relationship between theory and experiment in physics, particularly in measuring the magnetic moment (μ) of a magnet using available tools like a clock, circular wire loop, and electrical circuit. The key task is to determine the period of oscillation of the magnet, which is essential for calculating μ. Participants express interest in finding quality resources for problem-solving in this area, with a recommendation for Schaum's 3000 Solved Physics Problems as a useful reference for tackling such physics problems.

Some problems in physics are theory experiment. We have some tools, and we must find some equations for measuring. Example: Find the magnetic moment ##\mu## of the magnet if we have clock, circular wire loop, and electrical circuit.
We must find the period of oscillation of magnet. In that equation, we can find ##\mu##.
What are the best books about it ??

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

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!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

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...
