I am a 16 year old student who will be learning Physics next year. Before I actually start Physics in school, however, I want to have a basic or intermediate understanding of the subject beforehand. This is because I'm really interested in this type of science and I want to to impress my science teacher. I'm hoping to be borrowing some books relating to Physics in the oncoming weeks to help me learn.   Are there any resources online, Physics books, or exercises you guys can recommend to me? Also, are there certain terms or parts of Physics that I should start off with? (eg: the study of relativity)
Every once in a while, we get a question asking for a book or other educational reference on a particular topic at a particular level. This is a meta-question that collects all those links together. If you're looking for book recommendations, this is probably the place to start.  All the questions linked below, as well as others which deal with more specialized books, can be found under the tag  (formerly ).  If you have a question to add, please edit it in. However, make sure of a few things first:   The question should be tagged  It should be of the form "What are good books to learn/study [subject] at [level]?" It shouldn't duplicate a topic and level that's already on the list   Related Meta:
