Yes. But don't forget to add on the 150m

The thing is this is an introductory physics course (Physics 1) since I am taking it in 2nd year I already did calc I and calc II, I even aced calc II so I'm assuming my math background is pretty strong. Maybe it's the understanding part? Am I supposed to go over several textbooks, lecture...

Homework Statement A ball starts from rest and rolls down a hill with uniform acceleration, traveling 150 m during the second 5.0 s of its motion. How far did it roll during the first 5.0 s of motion? Vi= 0 at time t=5s -> d= 150 m Homework Equations d=vf+vi/2 * t The Attempt at a...

Do you just have to keep going at it and re-trying until you finally get it?

I try doing the assignments and I just can't do it, like my approach is completely wrong. What do you think went wrong? What is the best way to approach this? Thanks

So far I've gone through the exercises, I will soon do the problems and challenge problems (I just started studying the first chapter) Do you think doing the exercise questions are time consuming and not worth it?

Sorry are you saying that the midterm questions are equivalent in difficulty as the challenge problems?

Book: <<unauthorized link deleted; it's Young & Freedman, 13th ed. -- moderator>> Midterm: http://notebro.com/viewer.php?url=http://notebro.com/forum/download/file.php?id=43062 Any recommendations?

I only did the starter questions from a chapter should I continue doing them because some of the questions get harder? I'm using the freedman university physics book (recommended for the course)

When it comes to solving the problems I can do most of the textbook ones (I've only gone through a couple so far) but when I attempt the old midterm questions I get stuck and can't solve it. How do I prepare myself to be ready? Do I keep practicing the textbook questions and over time I'll...

The text for the course is Young & Freedman University Physics, this book has over 100 questions/ chapter so I was only planing on doing the 2 star or 3 star level of difficulty problems Our tests are tough, here's a sample midterm...

I want to get a good mark in this course, I wanted to do all the questions in the book but a lot of people say it's a waste of time and such. Would doing all the problems prepare me well enough for a midterm?

Hello I am taking a first year physics course at my university Our tests are multiple choice but very hard, here's an old midterm: http://notebro.com/viewer.php?url=http://notebro.com/forum/download/file.php?id=43062 Is it better to do ALL the questions in the back of the textbook or only...
