PHYSICS IS FUN
Many students complaint that
Physics is a tough and dry subject but believe me it’s not true. Physics is full of
fun and enjoyment. It depends on the way how you study Physics.
Conventionally, there are two
approaches to learning Physics
(1) By doing
experiments i.e. experimental Physics
Michael
Faraday, Galileo, C.V. Raman, Rutherford were experimental Physicist.
(2) By
understanding a given phenomenon /concept or theory using already understood
concepts of Physics and Mathematics i.e. Theoretical Physics
Einstein,
Heisenberg, Feynman were theoretical physicists.
Einstein
was also considered as experimental Physicist because of his experiments on
photoelectric effect. His special theory of relativity is a complete
theoretical.
Some
students find so easy in doing experiments. They know how to control apparatus,
environmental variables and enjoy the process of experimentation. While doing experiments sometimes they may
discovers some interesting facts about the nature. Like Faraday discover
electromagnetic induction when he accidently throw magnet through a coil.
Such
students love doing the experiments and understand physics in this way.
On the
other hand, some students find themselves in a difficult situation while doing
experiments. Unable to control the apparatus and environmental conditions and
poor in record keeping the tracks of observations and events they lost the experiment
in midway. Some of such students are actually good in understanding concepts.
They know why such things happen in nature and how the things will behave in a
given set of conditions. They can build mind map, have a great imagination, can
think of interrelation between different variable in an imaginary or
hypothetical experiment.
Einstein
and Feynman belongs to this category of physics.
Apart from
these two conventional approaches, the modern digital world has given us a lot
of options to understand physics in a better way such as Technology aided
Learning, simulations, YouTube videos, animations, virtual labs, science
cartoons, online tests and quizzes etc
This blog ‘Physics is
Fun’ created to bring all the approaches at one place. We Use
more than two appropriates approaches for a given topic for better
understanding of concept and at the same time making it fun and enjoyable.
Imagination
is very important in physics in both the conventional approaches. Using modern
digital tools, imagination f a child can be enhanced and facilitated.
So watch YouTube
videos, simulations, do experiments on virtual lab, take online test and most
important enjoy Physics and have Fun.
The target group
of this blog is the students at the secondary Level of CBSE.
With time
this blog will be extending for higher levels and for competitive exams.
