Entertaining physics problems by Yakov Perelman
. I note that this book can be seen as an extensive physics quiz which should help the reader assessing whether he actually masters the basics of physics. However, this is not a quiz that you would find in a traditional physics exam. While seemingly simple, the questions often surprise the reader and the quick intuitive answers to these one are often wrong. The ultimate purpose of the book is to convince the reader that the domain of physics is much richer in content than many people think, and incidentally to pay attention to the misconception of a number of physical representations. This book will encourage readers to critically review and carefully check their physics knowledge.
