How is Quantum Mechanics different from classical mechanics?

Classical mechanics describes the behavior of macroscopic bodies, which have relatively small velocities compared to the speed of light. Quantum mechanics describes the behavior of microscopic bodies such as subatomic particles, atoms, and other small bodies. These two are the most important fields in physics.

Is Morin good for IPhO?

Both are really good text-books and I know people who solved both of them for IPhO. But I didn’t have the enough patience to do both of them completely so I used Kleppner for most of the things and Morin only for Special Relativity and it turned out pretty well.

How can classical mechanics be improved?

Best way to learn classical mechanics is by solving problems. I would recommend David Morin’s book for basic concept since it doesn’t require very rigorous mathematics and quite straight to the point. For problem solving, I would recommend irodov, krotov which is less mathematical.
