Calculus based or non-calculus based? If you don't know calculus, I would
suggest you learn that first if you want a more thorough understanding of
mechanics. The classic calculus based text book for "Physics" at the
introductory college level is by Halliday and Resnick. It has a fair amount
of practical apps and exercises for mechanics.
