ULTIMATE A LEVEL PHYSICS Exam TIPS

[@zhelyo_physics]

How is revision going in the last few days before the exams? Did I miss any tips! Let me know!

[@iloveallah3991]

Sir you are my inspiration and please make a separate video on MCQ paper tips. How to improve MCQs, how to be more accurate, is it possible to get full marks in this paper and stuff like that. Please!!!!!!!!🥺

[@zhelyo_physics]

thanks a lot for the kind words! Multiple Choice Questions are tricky, I have a whole playlist with solutions here if it's useful: kzbin.info/aero/PLSygKZqfTjPClCY0DYNuMj6WSpJ5Pur4w

[@jojoagario4195]

you've helped me so much, in just two weeks of watching your videos and doing work ive gone from and e-d too an a. Thank you so much :).

[@yunogasai8599]

@@zhelyo_physics It's been going good! Though seeing the grade boundaries of previous years is pretty disheartening (It's like 80% for an A*!) so I'm doing all I can to bump my high B to at least a high A, which should be possible since I got all the maths down. 3 mark written questions though...

[@zhelyo_physics]

@@jojoagario4195 well done! That's amazing! Glad to hear this channel is useful! : )

[@thevinecompany7733]

great video! I've got ocr paper 1 on thursday and honstly youve helped so much over the last 3 months! Please keep these last minute videos coming before thursday!! thanks so much

[@zhelyo_physics]

Thanks for watching and good luck on Thursday, you will do very well!

[@JJFHNREHJEDK]

Thanks so much for this - I love the short videos like this. First exam Thursday. The list of notes I made for myself matched with this video really closely - gives me hope that I'm doing it right!

[@zhelyo_physics]

Glad to hear this and thanks for this! Good luck on Thursday!

Same exam 😭😭 today…..

[@puddleduck1405]

ahhhh thank God this popped up on my recommended a day before my 12 mocks haha! Thank you soooo much for the helpful tips :)

[@zhelyo_physics]

Anytime! Good lock on the mocks!

[@charliehall3483]

The radian mode caught me out!!! Thanks I'll make a note

[@zhelyo_physics]

Glad to hear this is useful!

Great video as usual

[@zhelyo_physics]

thanks a lot for your comment!

[@studywithyan697]

Hi Sir I just want you to know your videos is very helpful, I am a bit confused by what they meant by each command word, can you do a video on it?

[@zhelyo_physics]

Will do! Check out my response to similar comments on this video. Hopefully that clarifies this but I will on include it in a future video!

[@lucylu4823]

this is so helpful!! if possible do you think you could make a video about special relativity? I was doing some questions this morning and I don’t think it’s clicked for me yet. Thanks !! ☺️☺️☺️

[@zhelyo_physics]

Hi! I have some here, but they are more towards the university end, still good for understanding though: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXnLpnSXar6hq7M kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2WapZ6MprFssM0 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qovJi6igrKicaJo

[@e28playz29]

Thank you for this Is it possible if you can go through all the practical experiments that it mentioned in the advanced information for OCR. Paper 1 It would be really helpful! 😊

[@zhelyo_physics]

I have gone through all the standard experiments in my revision playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLSygKZqfTjPC3hJ7nRSnnXTw3tI_o67dR Also, just to clarify, the advanced information does not mention specific practicals but rather practical skills, which could mean a number of different questions.

[@tahabukhari3189]

Thank you so much for this. Also, are strange quarks produced by the strong interaction? I used to think that they decayed and were produced via the weak interaction. Also, do all quarks interact and come into existence via the string force then? Thank you

[@zhelyo_physics]

1) Strange Quarks can be produced by the strong interaction with gluons producing strange antistrange pairs. You generally need higher energy as they are more massive than up/down quarks. 2) In a way yes, and no, also remember, the weak interaction can change a quark flavour turning an up to a down or vice verse.

[@samuelgunter]

right after the AP test, perfect timing! :D

[@zhelyo_physics]

Hope it went well! I have good memories taking AP Physics in 2007 : )

[@samuelgunter]

@@zhelyo_physics we'll see in July 🤞

[@dami5606]

I have a question do you think we should learn all the practical's for the exam of by heart? Or is there no point

[@zhelyo_physics]

I would say revise them with understanding, not learning them by heart. They more often than not do a variation, or a completely new experiment using knowledge of the spec. Good luck!

[@dami5606]

@@zhelyo_physics okay thank you so much for replying really appreciate you🤞🏾

[@tilted3167]

If on a six mark question we write more than 6 bullet points to cover more information, would be be penalised for it?

[@zhelyo_physics]

Absolutely not. The 6 markers are marked in bands rather than individual points.

[@jaymercer4692]

This was recommended to me on the day of my exam, after my exam. Cheers KZbin. I think it went fairly well anyway, I only need an A in physics and I’m pretty sure what I did was worthy of an A* anyway.

[@zhelyo_physics]

Welcome to the channel! Two more papers to go. Well done on Paper 1!! : )

howd it go

Thank you I’m gonna remember these ok Wednesday

Thanks man. Back at the start of year 12 my exam technique wasn’t right. Then I developed it and my grades improved

Who are you

[@hmwh4t]

How did u find it

[@theaerograndprix]

Have you got any tips to massively boost your grades for Thursdays exam, I’m aiming for an A* and I’m struggling with past papers

[@zhelyo_physics]

A paper is just over 2 hours, you have time to do and redo all the past papers, you got this! : )

[@Splewdle]

What’s the difference in answers between describe and explain, I understand show normally consists use of equations but didn’t realise the other two were not interchangeable?

[@zhelyo_physics]

So example: describe what a graph looks like - it is a straight line through the origin, explain: The graph is a straight line because current is directly proportional to the p.d. Hope this makes sense - describe is - tell me how something looks like, explain - tell me why is it the way it is. I might do a full video on that!

[@Splewdle]

@@zhelyo_physics thanks for the clarification!

[@zhelyo_physics]

@@Splewdle Anytime!

[@harryhazard719]

is it only the oscillation equations that radian mode is required for example the circular motion equations

[@zhelyo_physics]

yep! In circular motion the equations normally work in degrees unless the question clearly states the unit as radians. Another one to watch out for is d=1/p in astrophysics, d needs to be in parsecs and p in arcseconds

[@neptune4434]

Few hours left 😭

[@hshshshsgdydh3764]

Is there any way I can message you about a question I'm struggling to understand a graph, its question 6 of aqa 2021 a level physics paper 1, thanks.

[@isaacfraser3465]

Graph is logarithmic my dude - value u want is inbetween 10^5 and 10^6 so you need to do 10^5.5, not 4.5x10^5

[@zhelyo_physics]

thanks!

[@oskarwitha_k8258]

whats the difference between describe, explain and show questions

[@zhelyo_physics]

I might have to do a separate video for that! : ) Some examples: Describe: The graph shows that velocity is constant for 5 seconds, then there is a constant positive acceleration. Explain: The net force is 0 for the first 5 seconds, so the velocity remains constant. Then there is a net force acting so acceleration occurs. Show: this is a mathematical proof and the marks go for writing out a mathematical expression, e.g. show that F=ma can be written as F=delta p/delta t for constant mass and the marks will go for that. I might do a separate video for that!
