Perhapsthe most commonly known book for Problems and Solutions in Physics preparing for all the competitive exams in India is Problems in General Physics by I. E. Irodov. This book is still in print from CBS Publishers in Delhi and hugely popular. It is supposed to the problem book in Physics. The book has the typical style of all books (listed here previously on this blog) of first topically giving problems and then in the later part of the book giving solutions. This is what the inside cover of the hardbound edition says about the book.

The book is intended for college undergraduates majoring in Physics. It contains about 2000 problem covering the major areas of Physical science: mechanics, thermodynamics, molecular physics, electrodynamics, oscillations and waves, optics, atomic and nuclear physics. Each section is preceded by a short summary of appropriate formulas whose total number exceeds 300. The answers to all of the problems are given at the end of volume. Most difficult problems are provided with explanations. Moreover, the author presents some general hints helping the undergraduate to tackle physical problems. Problems in General Physics is an excellent book which may serve as a valuable supplement to any college course on the subject.


This book, I think was one of the first Mir Books to be available as a scanned copy, perhaps due to the immense popularity of the book. There are also many solution sets to the book by different Indian authors.


This book was reprinted many times in the English edition. The first English edition appeared in 1981 was translated from Russian by Yuri Atanov. The link has the Third Reprinting of the book in 1988. This is also one of the last books published by Mir, which has an ISBN number (ISBN: 5030008004).


Igor Evgenyevich Irodov, Candidate of Science (Physics and Mathematics), Professor of General Physics, has published a number of scientific papers and books, among which are several manuals: Fundamental Laws of Mechanics, Problems in General Physics, A Laboratory Course in Optics. His Problem Book on Atomic and Nuclear Physics appeared in six Russian editions, and was published in Great Britain, USA, Romania and twice in Poland.


A Problem Book on General Physics (with I. V. Savelyev and O. I. Zamsha as co-authors) was printed three times in Russian and published in Poland. Mir Publishers have translated it into French; its publication in Arabic and Vietnamese is expected.


Apart from this popular book in India, Irodov has also written another problem book titled Problems and Solutions in Atomic and Nuclear Physics, which seems to be popular else where. This is most probably out of print and is a rare book to find and has over 1000 problems of varying difficulty. The Mir edition in English was first published in 1983 and was translated from Russian by Yuri Atanov.


Two more books of Irodov which are still in print, thanks to CBS Publishers are Fundamental Laws of Mechanics and Basic Laws of Electromagnetism. Again both of these books were translated from the Russian by Yuri Atanov.


The book consists of two parts: (1) classical mechanics and (2) relativistic mechanics. In the first part the laws of mechanics are treated in the Newtonian approximation i.e. when motion velocities are much less than the velocity of light, while in the second part of the book velocities comparable to that of light are considered.


Each chapter opens with a theoretical essay followed by a number of the most instructive and interesting examples and problems, with solutions provided. There are about 80 problems altogether; being closely associated with the introductory text, they develop and supplement it and therefore their examination is of equal inportance.


The book is intended as a textbook for students specializing in physics for undergraduate students specializing in physics (in the framework of the course on general physics). It can also be used by university teachers.


In the books attributed to Irodov above, I could not find any data on the book mentioned on the side cover of Problems in General Physics namely, A Laboratory Course in Optics. I tried worldcat, but there seems to be no entry for this particular book in English. So, I do not know whether an English edition of this book was ever published. Also, I do not know whether there are any books of Irodov which were translated into Indian languages. So please let me know if this is the case.


No. I do not know of this book. Thanks for pointing out, worldcat has an entry for this. Will have to be on the lookout for this one. It was published in 1988 by Mir, so it maybe rare to get this book.


Hi Damitr & Saurabh,

Gr8 idea. Hope it works. This book is very good. Saurabh,when you will be coming to India? Thanks to both of you in advance. Damitr has already done a gr8 job. Thanks. Keep it up.


This textbook describes the theory lying connected to properties and behavior of macro-systems, i.e. systems consisting of a very large quantity of particles. The subjects covered are thermodynamics, molecular-kinetic theory and both classic and quantum statistics. In addition to numerous examples, problems related to the considered topics are given at the end of each chapter.


This textbook contains both theoretical material (basic ideas of wave processes) and analysis of numerous examples and problems. Problems are closely related to the main context and supplement and further develop the theory presented in the book. The material is presented using as little mathematics as possible while the main accent is made on considering the physical aspects of the phenomenon.


The book contains more than 800 problems related to the following applications of quantum physics: quantum character of electromagnetic radiation, wave properties of particles, physics of nucleus, nuclear reactions and elementary particles.


They tell me College Street is a good place to hunt for books in Kolkata. The book was also republished by CBS Publishers so you may get it in regular shops also. This is one of the easier books to get!


I am preparing self for IIT and i am doing 12th from NIOS . please guide me How can i prepare self for JEE MAINS . I want to get admission in PEC, chandigarh. Please Give me any suggestion how to self prepare for it without join any coaching class.


Damitir, u are doing a great job. I have decided to go ahed with physics as my major and the credit goes to Mir books and you in turn for providing them to me. You have my kindest respects. Thanks a lot


Il corso si propone di fornire le conoscenze di base dell'elettromagnetismo classico nel vuoto e nei materiali: elettrostatica, correnti elettriche, magnetostatica, induzione elettromagnetica, con l'obiettivo di comprendere appieno le equazioni di Maxwell in forma integrale.


The course aims to provide the basic knowledge of classical electromagnetism in vacuum and materials: electrostatics, electric currents, magnetostatics, electromagnetic induction, with the integration of specific applications of Maxwell's equations in integral form.


Nell'esame scritto (3 ore) lo studente deve dimostrare la propria capacit di analizzare e risolvere problemi (tipicamente 3) relativi agli argomenti trattati nel corso. Durante l'esame orale lo studente deve dimostrare la sua comprensione delle leggi fondamentali dell'elettromagnetismo classico ed essere in grado di applicarle all'analisi e alla risoluzione dei problemi correlati.


In the written exam (3 hours) the student must demonstrate his/her ability to analyze and solve problems (typically 3) related to the topics covered in the course. During the oral exam the student must demonstrate his/her understanding of the fundamental laws of classical electromagnetism and be able to apply them to the analysis and resolution of related problems.


Lo studente che completa con successo il corso avr una buona conoscenza dei principi di base dell'elettromagnetismo nel vuoto e nei materiali e padronanza del metodo di analisi e risoluzione dei problemi.


The student who successfully completes the course will have a good knowledge of the basic principles of electromagnetism in vacuum and in materials and mastery of the method of analysis and problem solving.


The course aims to describe the laws of classical electromagnetism in vacuum and in materials: electrostatics, electric currents, magnetostatics, electromagnetic induction, with the goal of a full understanding of Maxwell's equations in integral form.
