University And College Physics

The topics listed below are common to a university and college physics curriculum. The main focus here is on classical mechanics. Click on the links to learn about these particular subjects.

Kinematics

Dynamics

Below is a list of solved physics problems taken from real-world applications. The solutions use concepts commonly taught in physics courses in university and college. The advantage of listing these types of problems is that they tend to utilize different physics concepts in one solution. For purposes of overall understanding, it is better to solve a few problems that involve numerous concepts than many little problems that each focus on a single concept. Quality over quantity applies well to solving physics problems. These problems range from easy to very challenging. Challenging problems are denoted by *.
