sanjoy's above paper has a wonderful collection of physics questions in the appendix that would be suitable for high school physics students. the paper can be downloaded.

thank you! i know sanjoy's writings well but i did not know of this paper. i have interacted with him on various occasions and am a fan of his. he is a passionate teacher. his ph.d. thesis is also a fun read. now how many ph.d. theses can you say are fun reads?
