   How do you pass physics?

   • You pass physics by learning how to think about it. The best way to get started with any kind of physics is to imagine that you’re there, in the middle of it. Maybe you’re a block, or a car, or a racing driver. Then ask yourself, “ What would I feel? Which direction am I moving in? Am I speeding up or slowing down?

   Can physics be simpler?

   • But only once you’ve got to come to grips with the simpler version. Sometimes, including all the hard stuff right from the start makes the problem impossible to solve. In physics, you sometimes make approximations or assumptions to turn a complex problem into a simpler version.

   Why is physics so important?

   • A: Physics is about being able to put yourself into a problem and asking “What would I feel?” When you’re doing this, you need to start at the start - with what’s initially going on. Q: Why? It hasn’t helped me get a final answer! A: Starting off a question with ‘obvious’ things gives your brain time to calm down and settle.
