It is a complete guide to understand physics in general and to prepare for JEE Main.
Fundamentals of Physics
Written and compiled by three professors David Halliday, Robert Resnick, and Jearl Walker, the book has media presentation of the content for a better understanding of those who struggle with absorbing knowledge through reading. The 10th edition of the book has been introduced in the market with re-written chapters and the addition of new sample and practice problems. Sample problems allow students to understand the concepts while the practice problems help them to review their understanding. The book is considered as the most reader-friendly book for physics.
Understanding Physics

This prepares students not only with the concepts but also with the application of those concepts in questions.
Problems in General Physics
Written by I.E Irodov, ‘Problems in General Physics’ is intended to explain some important topics of physical science such as mechanics, thermodynamics, waves, oscillations, optics, molecular physics, electrodynamics, and nuclear physics. I.E Irodov is the professor of General Physics and has many journals and other literary works to his credit. He has explained all the concepts in the book with the help of problems as the book contains around 2000 problems from the said topics. The complicated problems have been provided with solutions for a better understanding of the students.

Solving these papers helps in the last-minute revision required a week before the exam.
A Collection of Questions and Problems in Physics
Authored by L.A Sena, the book is a collection of questions and problems, which are helpful for students in preparing for JEE Mains and advanced. Solving papers prepares students to understand and cope with exam anxiety. Also solving questions and problems develop practical skills in students. It is a self-instruction book for students which means they can understand each problem without any external explanation from a teacher.

It has been proved, in different research, that it is easier for humans to understand and remember things explained with the help of diagrams and illustrations.
A book is man’s best friend only when it is read sincerely and thoroughly. Similarly, a book may explain concepts and provide solutions to the problem but students’ efforts and hard work hold equal importance while preparing for an exam like JEE Main.
