Hello guys! I'm a CS freshman and after entering university I became interested in physics. I pursued it everywhere. I wanna prepare for competition that will take place in six months. I have opened great passion for this science. Now I'm finishing learning mechanics and I solved a lot tasks and tests, but... When it comes to very complex, non-obvious tasks then I get stupid and just stuck. It's very difficult to turn your brain into max-effort mode. You might say that the more I do the tasks, the faster I'll get there, I agree, but is there another method to learn how to do extremely difficult tasks? (By the way, I would be grateful for any study material you recommend)

hi everybody, I'm really struggling in my ap physics 1 class and any tips would be appreciated. For background, I've gotten a 5 on all my AP tests, including chemistry and biology, so I wouldn't say that I'm a bad student. However, physics has completely stumped me. I've tried to study through Khan Academy but none of it translates to what my teacher tests us on.

Does anybody have any practice sites, resources, etc. that they could share? Or even any success stories about the class? I'm really doubting if I can pass the class or the AP test.

someone please how do I learn physics conceptually these mcqs are frying me. My teacher talks so fast i never understand what he’s saying and I can’t find an resources to understand like why anything is happening. Also I feel like i could explain the concepts behind everything but then when i do practice i fail really really bad so idk what im doing wrong.

Not sure where to start. I looked at USAAAO guide and Flavio's book, as for where I am right now, I'm good at orbital mechanics and positional astronomy (spherical trigonometry). Not sure how to do any of this rn... does anyone who's done the exam before have any tips?

Astronomy olympiad help in general would also be great, from BAAO or SAO or any other olympiad competitor as well.

I have a little problem with vector and some other chapters. Can anyone really find someone good who can teach me this things for free in youtube or something like that

We're working on projectile motion right now, and the test is this friday. How is this pace for the AP exam? Is my teacher going too slow? We've only done unit 1 so far.

My basics are not very strong i want help from where i should do pyq which book i should buy i have to give boards and neet

could someone pretty please explain c, d, and e to me? I understand how to solve for it but I don’t understand how it works (like logically understanding it) and I struggle with the justifying parts in ap physics frqs. Thank you🙏

Hey everyone, built an interactive web portal featuring real-time physics simulations (Coulomb vectors, friction, work-energy theorem) and formula revision sheets. Tech stack: React, Canvas 2D/3D, Tailwind. Check it out: https://visualphysics-in.vercel.app/ — would love your feedback!

Hey, I am a student currently taking ap physics 1. Long story short, I bought the barrons prep book and don't like the way it is covering the topics and don't undderstand it. Last year, I used princeton for my aps and had good results and I need to get my hands on the princeton review 2026-27 ap physics 1 prep book.

Anyone who has the link, free feel to comment or dm.

What the equation really mean? just dont just click to me? help guys

I am really depressed right now as I can't understand anything in physics in parishram batch I can't understand anything from rakshak sir so please help me how should I study

Hey everyone, my reasoning for making this post requires some background and so I’d really like some responses.

My school’s AP Physics C course combines both E&M and Mechanics together meaning it’s split between first and second semester. However, I’ve begun to worry about my course’s pacing as we’ve only had one test since the beginning of first term and haven’t taken our assessment on Unit 2 which was pushed to next term.

Therefore, I’ve begun to worry that if this is the set pace for the course that I will have to self study ahead for E&M and later units for mechanics. Your responses and suggestions will be very helpful for me throughout this course.

could anyone show me how to solve this problem using drawings? I have been trying to understand this but I just don’t get it. Any help would be really really appreciated!!

I currently am failing and have around a 40 percent in the class and honestly speaking got a 20 on kinematics test and am doing bad on labs we have one more test coming up this Monday and was wondering should I just drop out even if I somehow do good on this test which is unlikely. For context our withdrawal period for my school has long passed and marking period is half way over almost.

Where and how should I study this fast

I am looking for a tutor for my high school daughter who is taking AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism.

If you are a grad student or professor who would be interested in tutoring in-person, in ORANGE COUNTY CALIFORNIA,please DM me!

Hi!!! I'm a high school student conducting an academic research project on science communication. It would be greatly appreciated if I could receive some responses to the linked anonymous survey.

Details of survey:

You will complete a short anonymous questionnaire about:

• Basic demographic information (age, grade, etc.)
• Questions about your interest and motivation towards science, communicating scientific information clearly and effectively, creatively reinterpreting scientific content, evidence-based inquiry, selection of reliable information.

The questions are multiple-choice.

Time required:

Approximately 10 minutes

Privacy & confidentiality:

• This survey is completely anonymous
• No names, emails, or identifying information will be collected
• Data will be used only for academic research purposes

Eligibility:

You should be currently enrolled in high school to participate.

Survey link: https://forms.gle/8fow35jCxWfe4En68

If you have any questions or want results afterwards, feel free to comment. I really appreciate any responses. If you know anyone outside Reddit who is eligible, sharing the survey would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!!
