How To Deal With Physics
Once the student is promoted in class 11th from class 10th , the very first problem they face is ,that they are not able to survive and handle Physics.
Does Everyone Face It?
Yes, everyone face this problem after being promoted to class 11th and its completely normal to feel problem adapting to class 11th physics.

Some Common Problems
- Huge Syllabus
- Almost all the concepts are new.
- Long chapters
- Derivations are complex and long
- Never ending numericals
Solutions To Concept
Related Problems
Start thinking from first principles:
Take a concept, give some time to it thinking about it from first principles and ask basic questions. for example , if you are studying about cathode rays (A topic from Chapter 1, Chemistry Class 11th) Ask why do cathode rays occur ask why are electrons pulled away due to intensive potential difference.
"Question everything and you will generate good curiosity in physics and it would ultimately help you to have greater understanding of your concept."
Imagine Concepts:
Its Not just okay to read concepts try imagining them , for example if you are studying about light, try imagining about light, try imagining its rays, its photon particles and their movement.
If you are studying about relative motion ( a topic from Chapter 3, Physics class 11th) try imagining them from different and relative references.
"Every Scientist who has proved or discovered something, has first imagined those concepts"
Imagining topics will not only help you to have greater understanding of concepts but help you in solving numerical problems.
Active Recall:
Close your book recall everything which you have learnt . Try explaining the concepts to imaginary audiences using formal and complete sentences.
"If you can't explain it simply, you don't know it well enough"
Active recall enables you to quickly learn concepts and enhances the communication skills.

Break The Chapters Into Small
Topics
Gone are the days when the chapters were small and a chapter at whole can be understood and memorized. In order to understand and learn long chapters covert them into a set of small topics and study them.
"Its easier to eat small bites than to swallow whole bread."
Break the long chapters into set of small topics and try to learn concepts not chapters.
Solution To Numericals
And Derivation Related
Problems
Start From Extreme Basic Numericals:
Start with extreme basic numerical problems and after you solve a goo quantity of numerical problems revise the concept again.
This would increase you confidence to solve numerical problems.
Solve Numericals In Rising Order Of Difficulty:
Solve the basic low level questions earlier than revise your concept and then head for medium difficult questions and at the last go for most difficult questions.
This enables you to sit for long hours and satisfy the difficulty-interest curve.
Its advised to practice more and more questions.
Practice Derivations:
The only way to master derivations is to practice it multiple time. So its advised to practice them in multiple attempts.
While learning derivations one should learn the first statements from where the relations are taken , then learn the important steps. other steps left are mathematics, and can be put easily.
Things Must To Do
- "Mathematics is the language to deliver physics." So in order to be good in physics its important to learn some mathematical tools, like: Trigonometry , Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Algebra, Vector Algebra, Logarithms and drawing graphs.
- Its often said that starting months of class 11th are very crucial. The Students who don't waste this time and utilize it correctly have greater chances (97% out of 100%) to score good marks.
