Jamb Physics Hot Topics by poschools(m): 9:02pm On Mar 01, 2019
Scalars and Vectors
Scalars and vectors is one of the jamb physics hot topics which is constantly set by Jamb every year. Therefore it is very necessary you have a good in depth knowledge of this topic as it is one of jamb physics hot topics. I will list out the format that the questions can be set.
(i) You might be asked to differentiate between scalar and vector quantities.
(ii) You might be asked on the various examples of scalar and vector quantities.
(iii) Know how to solve simple relative velocity.
(iv)Also, know how to find the resultant of two or more vectors with different configuration of angles(0,30,60,180 degrees).
(v)Know how to resolve vectors into their component forms.

Measurements and units
Measurement and units might be set so get ready as it is another of jamb physics hot topics. You are to be able to:
i. identify the units of length, area, and volume;
ii. Use different measuring instruments(most especially vernier calipers and micrometer)
iii. Also, note the degree of accuracy of the various measuring devices
iv. Determine the lengths, surface areas and volume of regular and irregular bodies;
v. Identify the unit of mass as well as the concept of mass and weight.
vi. Identify the unit of time;
vii. Use different time-measuring devices;
viii. Relate the fundamental physical quantities to their units;
ix. Deduce the units of derived physical quantities;
x. Determine the dimensions of physical quantities


Motion
Linear motion: This part is divided into two aspects kinematics and dynamics. For kinematics aspect, you are to understand and be able to apply the equations of motion to solve problems. For the dynamics part, you need to be able to apply the newtons law of motion to solve problems as it is another jamb physics hot topics. The concept of linear momentum is also needed.

Circular motion: This is aspect it is very necessary for you to know the conversion of rpm to rad/s (revolution per minute). Also, you are to know the formula to find tangential velocity. Knowledge of simple harmonic motion is also required as it is another jamb physics hot topics.


Work, Energy and Power
This is another crucial topic that always comes out every year in Jamb as it is another jamb physics hot topics. Student are required to understand the following under this topic fully.

i. differentiate between work, energy and power;
ii. compare different forms of energy, giving examples;
iii. apply the principle of conservation of energy;
iv. examine the transformation between different forms of energy;
v. interpret the area under the force -distance curve.
vi. solve numerical problems in work, energy and power.
vii. itemize the sources of energy
viii. distinguish between renewable and non- renewable energy, examples should be given
ix. identify methods of energy transition
x. explain the importance of energy in the development of the society
xi. analyze the effect of energy use to the environment
xi. identify the impact of energy on the environment
xiii. identify energy sources that are friendly or hazardous to the environment
xiv. identify energy uses in their immediate environment
xv. suggests ways of safe energy use
xvi. state different forms of energy conversion.
