Hey guys, I'm looking for some nice new physics challenges similar to physics.harvard.edu Problem of the Week or the 2 star and above problems in Morin's Intro to Classical Mechanics (also Feynman problems). Where else can I find such problems? Or does anyone know of a few that they could share?

This post has links to qualifying exam questions from various schools. I'm sure you'll find plenty of challenging questions in those topics.

Look at E.T. Whittaker's Classical Dynamics of Particles and Rigid Bodies. It is 100+ years old, but it has some really nasty problems.
