Memorizing Math and Physics Formulas
1)..Math and Physics problems are not meant to be studied under stress.
Relax your mind. By doing this, you will be able to focus more on your
task.
2)..Many people think that once they take a glance at a
formula, it is in their mind, but when they wake up the next day, they
are shocked to realize that the formula leaked out during the night.
This is why it is a good idea to
practice solving a problem with the formula without looking it up. You
must do this as many times as you can. Repetition leads to Memorization.
3).. Put the raw units of each variable into the formula and see if you can get the units of the answer.
4)..Understand How the Formula is structured. You already have a decent
gut feeling about the concept. Make sense of the formula. For instance,
a = F / m. F is on the top of the fraction. That makes sense, since if
you exert more force on an object, it will speed up more quickly. Mass
is on the bottom of the fraction, since more mass means more inertia,
making the object more difficult to accelerate. The opposite formula (a =
m / F) does not make sense. Using this incorrect formula, a strong
force (large number on the bottom of the fraction) would cause a smaller
acceleration, which does not make sense.
5).. Find a small book
and put down all those formulas. Keep the book at your back pocket and
try to review them anytime you feel like you are missing something. This
will bring back the memories of what you have learned, making those
jaw-breaking formulas stick into your mind forever.
