Formula Booklet Physics XII

Dear students
It is the dream of every one of you to make a mark in this arena called life. The IITJEE is one of
the most rigorous test that you have to clear to take firm steps towards achieving this. All of you
want to do well in this examination or some other engineering entrance competition in order to
realize your dreams and also to see those tears of satisfaction in the eyes of your parents who
are proud of your success.
To succeed in any endeavour what a person needs is velocity. Yes, the same velocity that you
study in physics. Velocity is a combination of speed and direction.
Speed is the ability to do our work with utmost efficiency and negligible wastage of resources
such as time. At this stage of our career speed is very important for all of us.
I would like to take the help of an example to explain the term direction.
A young guy was lost on a road and he asked an elderly fellow, Sir, could you tell me where
this road will take me?
Without a moments hesitation the elderly chap said, Son, this road will take you anywhere in
the world you want to go, if you are moving in the right direction.
So direction is the right path towards our aim. You can tread on that path only when you have
your goal clearly in front of your eyes and you are working for that goal intensely with a strong
desire and an unshakable determination level, always believing that youll do it. Your attitude
and motivation are of utmost importance. Remember, this test that you are taking is not just a
test of your knowledge but also of how strong are you, mentally.
In this booklet we have made a sincere attempt to keep your velocity of preparations to the
maximum. The formulae will help you revise your chapters in a very quick time and the
motivational quotes will help you move in the right direction.
Hope youll benefit from this book and all the best for your examinations.

STUDY TIPS

Combination of Subjects
Study a combination of subjects during a day i. e. after studying 23 hrs of mathematics shift to
any theoretical subject for 2 horrs. When we study a subject like math, a particular part of the
brain is working more than rest of the brain. When we shift to a theoretical subject, practically the
other part of the brain would become active and the part studying maths will go for rest.

Revision
Always refresh your memory by revising the matter learned. At the end of the day you must revise
whatever youve learnt during that day (or revise the previous days work before starting studies
the next day). On an average brain is able to retain the newly learned information 80% only for 12
hours, after that the forgetting cycle begins. After this revision, now the brain is able to hold the
matter for 7 days. So next revision should be after 7 days (sundays could be kept for just
revision). This ways you will get rid of the problem of forgetting what you study and save a lot of
time in restudying that topic.

Use All Your Senses


Whatever you read, try to convert that into picture and visualize it. Our eye memory is many times
stronger than our ear memory since the nerves connecting brain to eye are many times stronger
than nerves connecting brain to ear. So instead of trying to mug up by repeating it loudly try to
see it while reapeating (loudly or in your mind). This is applicable in theoritical subjects. Try to use
all your senses while learning a subject matter. On an average we remember 25% of what we
read, 35% of what we hear, 50% of what we say, 75% of what we see, 95% of what we read,
hear, say and see.

Breathing and Relaxation


Take special care of your breathing. Deep breaths are very important for relaxing your mind and
hence in your concentration. Pranayam can do wonders to your concentration, relaxation and
sharpening your mined (by supplying oxygen to it). Aerobic exercises like skipping, jogging,
swimming and cycling are also very helpful.

Never say Quit!


When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill.
When the funds are low and debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing, youre down a bit.
Rest if you must, but never quit.
Life is queer, with its twists and turns,
As every one of us, sometimes learns.
And many a fellow turns about,
When he might have won, if he had stuck it out.
Stick to your task, though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with just another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man.
Often the struggler has given up.
When he might have captured the victors cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tints of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar.
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit,
Its when things seem worst, that you must never quit!

Put Forth Your Best


And Youve Already Won!
The contest last for just moments,
though the trainings taken years.
It wasnt the winning alone
that was worth the work and tears.
The applause will be forgotten,
the prize will be misplaced.
But the long hours of practise
will never be a waste.
For in trying to win, you build a skill.
You learn that winning depends on will.
You never grow by how much you win,
you only grow by how much you put in.
So any new challenge youve just begun,
Put forth your best and youve already won!

You can
if you think
you can!
If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think that you dare not, you dont;
If youd like to win, but think you cant,
Its almost certain you wont.
If you think youll lose, youve lost,
For out in the world you find,
Success begins with a fellows will,
Its all in the state of mind.
Often many a race is lost,
Before even a step is run,
And many a coward fails,
Before even his works begun.
Think big, and your deeds will grow
Think small, and youll fall behind.
Think that you can, and you will,
Its all in the state of mind.
If you think youre outclassed, you are;
Youve got to think high to rise;
Youve got to be sure of yourself,
Befoe you can ever win a prize.
Lifes battles dont always go,
To the stronger or faster man,
BUT SOONER OR LATER THE MAN WHO WINS,
IS THE ONE WHO THINKS HE CAN.
