Where Can I Find Challenging Classical Physics Problems Online?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for websites that provide challenging problems related to classical physics, similar to the problem-solving format of Project Euler. The user expresses a desire for problems that require deep thinking and cover a wide range of topics in physics, rather than simple exercises. While some participants suggest checking the homework section of a specific site for problems, there is a consensus that existing resources primarily offer lectures, videos, or courses, which do not meet the user's needs for problem-solving practice. The conversation highlights a gap in accessible, challenging classical physics problems online.

Hey, I don't really know where to post this, so I'll just post it here. Does anyone know some websites, which contain a list of problems to do with classical physics? Something like http://projecteuler.net" . I want these sorts of problems, except for classical physics.

I don't really want just simple exercises. I would prefer if the difficulty of the problems would force me to think deeply and cover a broad range of physics.

Have you looked at the maths and physics learning resources?
I can't think of any site, I tend to use the problems that are posted on this site (homework section?) and then check my answers against the other users.
 
Yeh, I did have a quick look. Most were lectures, videos or courses. I don't really want that. I'll look in the homework section, see if their are problems there, though I'd prefer not to do this.
 
Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
