is there a site (like this: http://www.feynmanlectures.info/exercises.html) that collects "famous" physics problems about thermodynamics and electromagnetism?
(For "famous problems" I mean something like that: 1.find the maximum angle of deflection after a collision... 2.what is the shape of a liquid in a rotation cylinder with angular speed ##\omega##? Etc)

Yes, there are several sites that collect famous physics problems in thermodynamics and electromagnetism. Some examples include:

1. Physics Stack Exchange: This is a popular online platform for asking and answering physics questions. Users can search for specific topics, such as thermodynamics or electromagnetism, and find a variety of famous problems that have been discussed by other users.

2. Physics Classroom: This website offers a section on "Challenging Physics Problems" that covers a wide range of topics, including thermodynamics and electromagnetism. The problems are organized by difficulty level and also include detailed explanations and solutions.

3. The Physics Hypertextbook: This site has a section called "Famous Problems in Physics" which includes problems from various fields, including thermodynamics and electromagnetism. The problems are presented in a narrative format and often include historical context.

4. MIT OpenCourseWare: This platform offers free access to course materials from various MIT courses, including physics. The courses often include problem sets and exams, which can be a great resource for finding famous problems in thermodynamics and electromagnetism.

I hope these suggestions are helpful in finding the famous physics problems you are looking for!
