Where Can I Find Comprehensive Physics Resources for IB Students?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around finding reliable online resources for physics principles and equations, as one user expresses disappointment over a previously used site that appears to be shut down. Another user provides an updated link to the same site, indicating it may have just changed its server port. The conversation shifts to experiences in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, with users sharing their locations and concerns about the difficulty of IB physics. One user mentions the challenge of taking higher-level physics without also taking higher mathematics, while another discusses the transition from the GCSE program to IB in Hong Kong. The dialogue highlights the varying educational experiences and challenges faced by students in different regions.

Hello all.

Does anyone know any good sites which outline physics principals and equations? I used to use www.physics.uq.edu.au:8001/ph128/contents.html,[/URL] but it seems that it has been shut down. I really liked the site, since it was comprehensive, and had a huge amount of information, from middle school to college.

"IBscrewed" i love the name! I am in pre IB at the moment and will be taking physics high level (if my school offers it. my science teachers say they will being offering it by the time i can take it *crosses fingers*). I live in Colorado.

Thanks *so* much for finding that for me hbar!

Im finding physics at a higher level challenging, especially since I am not taking IB higher mathematics (which is probably one of the hardest high school classes there is.)

I live in Hong Kong, and I decided to take the IB program after graduating from the GCSE program (grades 9-10), so technically and legally I would not have to go to school anymore if I was in the USA, which is 2 years earlier than in an american public school.

Im not sure what material is studied in the first 2 years of high school in american public schools, but the higher physics course is designed to be challenging, which it should be.
