Only RD Sharma. You can purchase it for your 11th preparation and please clear your concepts regarding maths.

Just focus on NCERT books and believe in clearing your concepts instead of practising with 1000s of MCQ. NCERT is best for JEE Mains.

You can switch to HC Verma 'Concepts of Physics' and NCERT books for self studying effectively. You can also have a look at some of the Feynman lectures related to the syllabus of JEE Mains. Wish you luck.
