i'm currently taking grade 12 physics. my teacher is really nice, but i got say that she sucks at teaching, and the textbook we're using is worse.
can anyone here help me with understanding the basics theories and equations I need for this test?

Whats going to be covered on the test? Is it calculus based or not? And what specifically do you need help with?
 
it is not calculus based.
here's the list of topics the test is going to cover.
-domain theory of magnetism
-Magnetic Force on Moving Charges
-Effects of Magnetic Fields
-Field Theory
-Magnetic Force on a Conductor
-Ampère’s Law
-Coaxial Cables and Magnetic Fields
-The Ampere As a Unit of Electric Current
-Electromagnetic Induction
 
This is way too broad a request to expect a reasonable response.

If you have some specific questions or problems that are giving your trouble, then you'll get some useful help. (We have an excellent Intro Physics homework help section.)

You need to struggle through the book, like it or not. (Or find another comparable one, more to your liking.) Attempt to solve as many problems as you can.

Browse through our Introductory Physics Learning Materials section; you may find some useful tutorials. An excellent site to browse is hyperphysics: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/emcon.html

I will check this website and and the forum you sent me.
thank you
 
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
