How to face the challenge ?
Following are some doubts which arise in the mind of almost all the students
but may face them by taking some care.
1. I can not solve numerical because my concepts are not clear. In fact numerical
solvingitselfis an exercise t~ learn concepts.
·z. 1 /can
'
not study because I am in depression, I fell into it because I was not
studying! Depression is escape mechanism of people afraid of facing failures.
Failure is integral partoflearning.
4. In exams my brain goes blank, but I can crack them at home. Home attempt is
your second attempt! you are contemplating about it while home back. You
do not behave differently in exam you replicate your instincts. Once a fast
bowler was bowling no balls. His coach placed a-stump on crease, in fear of
injury he got it right. CONCEPTUALIZATION, WRITING EQUATION, SOLVING,
THEN PROBLEM GETS TO CONCLUSION!
2. Withou't strong sen_se of achievement you can't excel. Before entering the
cmppeti.tive field strong counselling by parents is must. Majority do not
· know what for they are here. No strategic planning, they behave like a tail
: ende_r batting in frontofSteyn's bouncers.
3. - 'science is not a subje,ct based on well laid dowh procedures or· based on
learning sonie facts, it ipvolves very intuitive and exploratory approach.
Unless their is desire and passion to learn you can not discover new ideas. It
requires p'atience and hard work, whose fruits may be tangible later on.
4. Some students realize very late that they are studying for acquiring skills and
, .honingthem. Their is a feeling that they can ride at the back of instructor and
,
· , achieve ~xcellence. Study comes as tqrtu·rous exercise enforced on them and
'
their is some mechanism that can take this burden-of them. -
5. Science is not about gaining good marks, up toXth by reading key points good
marks are achieved but beyond that only those survive who have genuine
interest in learning and exp to ring. Selfstudy habit is must.
7. Once a sl:l,ldent lags behind due to scime forced or unforced errors his mind
begins to play rationalization remarks like I am an average student, my mind
is not sharp enough, I have low IQ etc: These words are mechanisms _used to
· a\Toid hard work. These words a,re relative terms a person who has .early start

Cartesian coordinate system. It consists of velocity 10 m/s. A block kept inside the train is
three mutually perpendicular axes designated as visualized by two observers one on the ground and
x-axis and y-axis and z-axis. Location of any point is the other inside the train. For an observer in the

1.1. the block moves with the train (Fig. 1.2). In the
language of physics a technical term frame of
reference is used to describe a coordinate system
and position of observer. We say that in reference
frame of ground the block is in motion and in
reference frame of train the block is at rest.

axes, although components ofvecrordepend on the choice ofco· - final position vector - initial position vector
ordinate axes (Fig. 1.39).
At time t 1 , the particle is at point P1 , and 'its position

Average Velocity
Speed is a scalar quantity which describes rate of
motion, but velocity is a vector that gives the direction of
motion as well as rate.
A body's average velocity is defined as its displacement

add to this small increments of area (1',. v) determined from
u(m/s) the a-t graph. In this manner, successive points,

20 r,1--,,-------i to an increase in v ("positive" area), whereas those lying
below the axis indicate a decrease in v ("negative" area).

police car has two phases: one at constant acceleration and
one at constant velocity. In such problems, it is convenient to
use M instead oft in the equations. The police may or may
not catch the speeder during the acceleration phase. This
