My fav subtopic in Physics is electromagnetic radiation.
My most hated subtopic is Optics (not interested at all). yawn.gif

Isn't optics a subtopic of EM radiation albeit a specialized part hmm.gif

Lol just wanna where can I start in increasing my knowledge on physics? I forgot most of the stuff taught in secondary school already.

I know, besides going back to the secondary school textbooks, where else can I start? notworthy.gif

Depends on how strong is your basics.

A good physics book which i enjoyed reading is the "Feynman Lectures". Maybe you can start there though if you say you forgot most of secondary level physics, it may be tough.

waoh... i am so tired now....
just back from a trip promoting theoretical physics to secondary school studetns...
it is always good to see response from students. well, except for one chinese school which is so damn stupid.

Damm, why weren't you around during my years as secondary school student .... wish that i had exposure to it back then

can you help me this doubt?
why is it U shaped one the magnetic field strength stronger?

another ques
thanks

About U-shape, i think the text in the second picture you post explains it. More magnetic flux concentrated in an area.

Wah, very hard to find malaysians who like this stuff

I don't take physics, but I'm interested in it.
I do maths, including some geometry, topology and functional analysis.
So cannot run from physics application la.
PDEs, Tensors, Hilbert/Banach Spaces...mostly QM related material
Sometimes it's very hard tho, makes me wanna krai

Can't do physics papers because they have like 3-hour labs, NOT FUN.
Unfortunately don't have physics friends to talk to about all this stuff(no maths friends either lol)
Well...malaysian friends anyway.

Well depends on what you do in the 3-hour labs. I personally enjoyed the 3-hours labs of physics in my engineering course in monash university.

This would be a good place to discuss physics, this thread in particular. As it focuses more on the theory, it doesn't really stray afar compared to other threads that were in this section.
