2 Key Rules To Better Grades: Keep Up And Understand Before You Memorize Next: The best ways to study mathematics.) By The Reading Laboratory Written for NEA There's no need to consider physics and chemistry separate ly because the method of phys ics is the same as that of chem istry and their subject matter Is the same. You might ask then, what difference is there between physics and chemis try? ' . As a matter of fact, there really Isn't any. Chemical reac tions can now be understood in terms of molecular and atomic reactions. For instance, a com mon chemical reaction is when an acid and a base neutralize each other. We know from mod ern physics that electrons and protons are atomic particles that balance each other, that complement each other. When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it's in balance, or it's stable. But the atoms of an acid have an ex cess of electrons, while a base has an excess of protons. When they neutralize each other, all that really happens is that the excess electrons In the acid bal ance with the excess protons In the base. So actually the study of chem istry is just one branch of the larger science, physics. (It's still useful to retain the differ ent names, however, For in stance, it's useful to you when you pick your courses. For the purposes of this article, how ever, we'll use the word phys ics to include chemistry.) When you study physics, real ize it is a science which ' at tempts to explain the physical universe by constructing as few laws as possible. Ever since the ancient Greeks, scientists have been trying to find the one law that would explain everything that we observe. It's good to keep this in mind as you wade through a physics course. Al though you may feel buried un der a mountain of laws, if you think long enough, you'll see that they can all be understood In terms of a lew basic con cepts of mass, velocity and force. If you always keep these three concepts right in front of you when you study, say, the laws of motion, you'll have no trouble understanding why New ton formulated his laws as he did. And if you get into the habit of trying to find the why behind each physical lav, you'll have learned to get the most out of a physics course. Physics will be a lot less work, too, because it'll be interesting. Don't work up a sweat memorizing the for mula for Boyle's Law; you'll just forget it anyway. Spend your sweat to understand what Boyle's law means, and you'll probably be able to figure out the formula. If you still want to memorize the formula, it'll be easy to memorize because it'll make sense. Physics is a logical science, a building process. As a rule, you need to know everything in the first chapter before you can get much out of the second. So it's really foolish to let your self fall too far behind your study schedule. It's not as easy to catch up as it is in some other subjects. To sum up: Don't get con fused by a pile of laws. Think about them, understand them and try to break them down into a few simple con cepts like mass, velocity and force. Don't memorize until you understand. That's usually fa tal, i If you can't ' understand something, ask your teacher for help.) Keep up with the course; don't let your studying fall behind.
