Education / Study Tips For Passing Physics Exams by infoman007(m): 5:43am On Dec 21, 2013
• Don’t be intimidated, no matter what you’ve heard about a subject.
• Think positively. Problem solving is actually fun if you’re in the right state of
mind — consider it a challenge!
• It helps to go to lecture once in a while. It helps even more to try and stay awake
and take notes.
• Read the material before you go to class. That way, you’ll have a sense of what’s
to come, what’s important, and what you really need to take notes on.
• Time management is part of the Physics Ferret’s secret: even if you’re traveling
close to the speed of light, study time has a way of contracting. SO try to set up a
study schedule even if you don’t always stick to it.
• Learn to study many subjects at once. It rejuvenates the mind and prevents
burnout in one area. Don’t spend hours at a stretch on any one subject —
neglecting everything else. Try using shorter stints for all your courses.
• Above all, DON’T PULL ALL NIGHTERS. Except for assuaging a guilty
conscience, the Physics Ferret has discovered they are all but useless (and the next
day is sheer hell).
• Use the best hours of every day to study your harder subjects. It’s quality over
quantity, and if you’re tired, the time spent is worthless. If you’re wide awake and
stimulated it’s golden.
• When studying the text, keep testing yourself. Ask questions: do I understand
what’s being said? Does it make sense? How has it been derived and why should I
believe it?
• Science and math are like languages: you can’t cram for them. They need to be
absorbed slowly. Learn concepts rather than trying to memorize formulas.
Formulas are simply statements of deeper, underlying ideas. If you understand the
basic concept, you can usually solve any problem — provided it has a solution.
• Problem solving is not a spectator sport. You can spend several hours watching
someone solve problems. But unless you play the game yourself, you won’t learn
the moves.
• Start by reading the problem very carefully.
• Take an inventory of things that are known and unknown.
• Always draw a diagram of some kind. It helps you visualize the problem.
• Rather than tackling a large problem in one shot… it usually helps to break it up
into smaller, manageable pieces.
• Don’t mix apples and oranges: while working on a problem be sure to keep your
units straight.
• Perseverance pays: it helps to think about a problem even when you’re not at your
desk trying to solve it.
• Talk it over with a friend. Even if your friend doesn’t have the vaguest idea about
the subject, sometimes simply verbalizing a problem is enough to clarify it in your
own mind.
• Try working the problem from both ends: start at the beginning and go as far as
you can. Then go to the end and work backwards. Hopefully you’ll be able to pull
it together in the middle. Problem solving is akin to an art.
• If you get stuck and feel you can’t go further, don’t keep pushing! It helps to
simply relax. Let the problem go, do something pleasurable and give your mind a
chance to work on it by itself.
• Don’t be afraid to seek help, but only once you’ve gone as far as you possible can.
Then, all it should take are a few hints for everything to suddenly fall into line and
make sense.
• When you finally get a numerical answer, see if it makes sense. Does the order of
magnitude seem consistent with real life?
• Don’t panic when faced with an exam. A good idea is to first read through the
exam, then do the problems which you find easiest. While you’re doing this, your
mind will be working subconsciously on the hard ones. Look at it as a game, a
way to test yourself to see how much you’ve actually learned.
• When you get your exam back, don’t throw it away. Go back over each question
and learn from your mistakes.

How To Solve Mathematics Word Problems
The RQWQCQ Strategy for Solving Math Word Problems
RQWQCQ is a good strategy to use when solving math word problems. Each of the letters in RQWQCQ stands for a step in the strategy.
Solving Math Word Problems, Mathematician
Read
Read the entire problem to learn what it is about. You may find it helpful to read the problem out loud, form a picture of the problem in your mind, or draw a picture of the problem.
Question
Find the question to be answered in the problem. Often the question is directly stated. When it is not stated, you will have to identify the question to be answered.
Write
Write the facts you need to answer the question. It is helpful to cross out any facts presented in the problem that are not needed to answer the question. Sometimes, all the facts presented in the problem are needed to answer the question.
Question
Ask yourself, "What computations must I do to answer the question?"
Compute
Set up the problem on paper and do the computations. Check your computations for accuracy and make any needed corrections. Once you have done this, circle your answer.
Question
Look at your answer and ask yourself: "Is my answer possible?" You may find that your answer is not possible because it does not fit with the facts presented in the problem. When this happens, go back through the steps of RQWQCQ until you arrive at an answer that is possible.
Use RQWQCQ to help you correctly solve math word problems.
Math Tips, Equations
To the nearest hundred
If the tens digit is 5 or more, round to the next highest hundred (384 rounds to 400).
If the tens digit is less than 5, round to the next lowest hundred (427 rounds to 400).
To the nearest thousand
If the hundreds digit is 5 or more, round to the next highest thousand (7,602 rounds to 8,000).
If the hundreds digit is less than 5, round to the next lowest thousand (7,268 rounds to 7,000).
How to Find an Average
To find the average of several numbers, add the numbers together and then divide the sum by the number of numbers.
The average of 17, 30, 6, and 7 = 60 ÷ 4 = 15
How to Tell if Two Fractions are Equivalent
Cross multiply the fractions. If both products are the same, the fractions are equivalent.
3 and 9 3 x 24 = 72 3 and 9 are equivalent fractions.
8 24 8 x 9 = 72 8 24
5 and 3 5 x12 = 60 5 and 3 are not equivalent fractions.
8 12 8 x 3 = 24 8 12
Math Tips, Student
How to Find a Percentage
To tell what percentage one number is of a second number, divide the first number by the second. Move the decimal point of the resulting quotient two places to the right.
Example: What percentage is 20 of 300?
20 ÷ 300 = .067 = 6.7%
How to Change a Fraction to a Percentage
Divide the numerator by the denominator. Move the decimal point of the resulting quotient two places to the right.
6 = 6 ÷ 15 = .4 = .40 = 40%
15
How to Change a Decimal to a Percentage
Move the decimal point two places to the right.
0.792 = 79.2%

Education / How To Have Good Listening In Class by infoman007(m): 11:54am On Nov 24, 2013
It is important for you to be a good listener in class. Much of what you will have to learn will be presented verbally by your teachers. Just hearing what your teachers say is not the same as listening to what they say. Listening is a cognitive act that requires you to pay attention and think about and mentally process what you hear.
To be a good listener in class:
Be Cognitively Ready to Listen When You Come to Class. Make sure you complete all assigned work and readings. Review your notes from previous class lessons. Think about what you know about the topic that will be covered in class that day.
Be Emotionally Ready to Listen When You Come to Class. Your attitude is important. Make a conscious choice to find the topic useful and interesting. Be committed to learning all that you can.
Listen with a Purpose. Identify what you expect and hope to learn from the class session. Listen for these things as your teacher talks.
Listen with an Open Mind. Be receptive to what your teacher says. It is good to question what is said as long as you remain open to points of view other than your own.
Be Attentive. Focus on what your teacher is saying. Don't let your mind wander to other things. It helps to sit in the front and center of the class and to maintain eye contact with your teacher.
Be an Active Listener. You can think faster than your teacher can speak. Use this to your advantage by evaluating what is being said and trying to anticipate what will be said next. Take good written notes about what your teacher says. While you can think faster than your teacher can speak, you cannot write faster than your teacher can speak. Taking notes requires you to make decisions about what to write, and you have to be an active listener to do this.
Meet the Challenge. Don't give up and stop listening when you find the information being presented difficult to understand. Listen even more carefully at these times and work hard to understand what is being said. Don't be reluctant to ask questions.
Triumph Over the Environment. The classroom may be too noisy, too hot, too cold, too bright, or too dark. Don't focus on these inconveniences. Stay focused on the big picture - LEARNING.
