<p>Wednesday I have a final in physics, but need a 96 percent in order to earn a B in the class. Does anyone have any suggestions or tips when it comes to clearly understanding physics 1 completely?</p>
<p>Are you kidding?</p>
<p>That would have been a better question to ask near the beginning of the semester. Now you just have to study your butt off. A good idea I’ve seen given here is to make yourself a “cheat” sheet listing all important equations and concepts you’ll need for the final. Don’t actually bring it into the exam, but just creating it should help you remember the important stuff. Other than that, get 8 hours of sleep and good luck.</p>
<p>F = dp(t)/dt
v = ds/dt
a = dv/dt
W = Fdotd; P = dW(t)/dt</p>
<p>You should be good.</p>
<p>Here’s another formula: u r fx-d.</p>
<p>Forgive my bluntness, but you’ve had a C+ understanding of physics all semester, and suddenly you need an A? And here it is, about 36 hours before that final and you’re wasting time on this board looking for help? Find a classmate or study group, or talk with your professor.</p>
<p>I had a B, but with all my other classes things get tangled. I took 18 credits
Calc 2, western civ, physics, physics lab, engineering intro, and microecon.</p>
<p>I have calc 2 and physics tomorrow. I feel like I can do it after studying straight, but I just wanted to see if anyone had any good online sources that would test my physics fast. Found some good youtube video’s and I’ve read my book again so I should be ok…</p>
<p>For future reference, it is helpful to indicate the actual material studied. I could have given you a ton of stuff on Maxwell’s equations, provided you have had multivariable differential or integral calculus, but I am not sure it would have helped. Or I could have given you kinematics equations. Or orbital motion. Or… anything.</p>
<p>I wrote all of those on my flash cards. Calculus equations I don’t need, (their definitely in my head). The problem with my physics test was that I had my Calc 2 final on the same day. It was horrible, but I’m happy that to say that I should have a B in math(needed a 93% on e final to get a A-) and hopefully in physics. </p>
<p>I had to deal with torques, frictional torque, rotation acceleration, rotational velocity and, rotational position. luckily no relativity 
There was really no simple and easy physics problems</p>
<p>Now as a first year engineer student is a B or B+ in calc 2 and a C+ or B- or B in physics good?</p>
<p>I forgot to mention how difficult my physics teacher makes stuff sometimes… I really want an exciting crazy physics teacher, where do I get one?</p>
<p>I remember calc 2 being a bunch of hard, pointless systems of equations that were made completely redundant by calc 3. I still got a B+ in calc 2 (A+ in Calc 1 and 3), and an A- in physics 1 and 2. I guess it depends on your school and instructor. But really try to get the physics stuff down. You’ll only encounter more of it as you progress. Calc 2? not so much…</p>
