Physics
How to study physics
Physics is an understanding problem more than a memory problem. If you understand where a formula comes from and when it applies, you need to remember far less. Notes and questions help you understand; problems are still something you have to practise.

Why it is hard to learn
- Concepts that go against everyday intuition
- Knowing which formula applies to which situation
- Units, and turning words into equations
- Each topic builds on mathematics and on the topics before
A study plan that works
Get notes that explain the concept
Upload the lecture, slides or chapter. Memo's notes explain what each formula means and when it applies, with the equations written out.
Put the formulas on flashcards
One card per formula, with what each symbol means and when to use it.
Check your understanding
Take the quiz on the note. Concept questions show whether you understand the physics or only recognise the formula.
Then practise problems
Work through your problem sets. When you get stuck, ask the chat on the note which idea applies.
The study modes that fit best
Notes
For understanding: what a formula means and where it comes from.
Flashcards
For formulas, units and constants.
Quiz
For concept questions that check understanding.

Questions
Can Memo solve my physics homework?
Memo is built for learning the material, not for handing in answers. It explains the concepts and checks your understanding; the problems are yours to practise.
