QUOTE(IcyDarling @ Jun 15 2009, 03:41 PM) form 4 this year, very green to this thing called physics.. anyhow, this linear motion thing interest me a lot, i got a question, is taking physics as a major hard? Coz i want to take it, but then theres this few devilled-fren of mine implenting that physic is so dam hard At the degree level,physics (pure science) is probably more difficult to understand than engineering (applied science) because it involves a lot of theories. To know whether you have the passion, I would suggest you go through SPM and A-level/STPM (as a gauge). If you have the passion for it, go for it. |

QUOTE(IcyDarling @ Jun 15 2009, 06:39 PM) is engineering a little connected to physics? You'll need to use theories and formulas from physics in many aspects/fields of engineering. |

QUOTE(eXPeri3nc3 @ Jun 18 2009, 02:28 AM) Lol just wanna where can I start in increasing my knowledge on physics? I forgot most of the stuff taught in secondary school already. I know, besides going back to the secondary school textbooks, where else can I start?  Since secondary physics is where you left off, I think reading an A-level book would be appropriate as it isn't too hard to understand. If you'd want to get something short, I would suggest reading 'Longman Advance Level Physic' by Loo Kwok Wai (Longman). If you would like something deeper try 'Physics for Scientists and Engineers' by Raymond A. Serway that can be found at our uni library (location: QC23 SER f). Personally, I found those books easy to understand and interesting. All the best!  Edit: Grammar This post has been edited by Thinkingfox: Jun 18 2009, 02:09 PM |

QUOTE(vick5821 @ Jun 19 2009, 01:32 PM) Hey, I am a form 5 student.Can I ask my doubt here? NO!! Only those with PhD in Physics and above can discuss! Oops. I don't have a PhD in physcis. So even I can't discuss... LOL..Just kidding, dude. This discussion is open to everyone of all levels. Of course some background reading would be encouraged. |
