whats the hardest part in mechanics? i'm only up to resisted motion and i'm finding it difficult...very difficult. damn brain y dnt u work better :burn: gave u a punishment last night and the early hours of the morning by intoxication
how much harder does it get???
is the uniform circular motion stuff hardest?

free body diagram.

show the forces acting on the object in two directions of the isolated object.
*shudders*
I had to do that for Physics Olympiad last year. I think I totally fucked that.

I had the same problem, after a little practice its like the easiest topic, easy marks.

Resisted motion nothing to hard just the algebra

Circular motion, there isnt much they can ask you on that aswell
ill post later a Algebra based circular question later
again its just algebra for the harder questions

Circular motion is by far the most conceptually difficult section of Mechanics. Most people have difficulty particularly in understanding the derivation of the circular motion equations which involves obtaining expressions for horizontal and vertical accelerations and then resolving their vectors into tangential and centripetal components (particularly when the circular motion is non-uniform). If you can get your head around that, then the rest of Mechanics should be easy to understand conceptually...
