Physics - memorize constants?

<p>HI,</p>

<p>for the physics subject test, do I need to memorize the heat constants (like rough approximations) and other numbers or are they usually provided for us in some way?</p>

<p>Thanks,
Mrmaster</p>

<p>If I remember correctly, I think they’ll give you fundamental constants. Since the SAT math test goes far enough to give you the formula for the area of a rectangle (tsk tsk), you’d think they’d also give the values of certain constants…</p>

<p>Besides, calculators aren’t allowed, so knowing the value of the gravitational constant to five decimal places probably won’t help.</p>

<p>On the other hand, <em>definitely</em> know the units of these constants. Usually you can eliminate one or two answer choices because the units don’t work.</p>

<p>thank you very much !</p>

<p>I think I’ll just try to memorize rough approximations, like 2,4,2, 335 and 2200 for water. other things like gravitational constant and stuff, yeah I mean with most of them it’s easy to remember simply by using them… </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Best,
