About

Hello! If you are just starting physics, or are an intermediate learner, this series is for you! In this series we will cover the entire book of 'Fundamentals of Physics' written by Resnick, Halliday & Walker It is a beautiful, simple yet rigorous textbook that will help you learn Physics from the basics and make you good at solving problems In each session, we will be going over 1 out of the 44 sections of this book in order. Here's the index of the book for an overview: PART 1: Mechanics &Properties of Matter PART2: Heat PART 3: Electromagnetism & Optics PART 4: Atomic Physics I am myself just starting out with this book and have little experience in physics, but it also means I can break it down for beginners and understand your struggles. This is NOT meant to be a class, where I teach, but rather a DISCUSSION PLATFORM with a specific goal in each session where we help each other out and learn the section of the book and also be accountable! I will also pass out the digital notes I have made at the end of each session - which will include many application problems. There's a link to the free pdf of the book in the discussion section below! NB: This Series may extend over months with about 5-7 sessions each week - it'll be worth it!
