In summary, the person is seeking help in refreshing their knowledge of physics, which they had previously studied at a Masters level. They are asking for recommendations for online courses and someone suggests searching on YouTube. The person also mentions that they are looking for a free course and clarifies that they are interested in topics such as quantum, relativity, and classical physics.

Any Online course?

Hmm... Perhaps a youtube search, ole chap? I wouldn't look under "Masters of physics refresher," though. Things are a lot more specialized these days it seems. It basically breaks down like the subtopics on this website, quantum, relativity, classical, etc. If you are a master, though, I'd recommend Lenny Susskind's courses on the Stanford channel.

Masters means Graduate Course no. Plz. specify Physics is your subject or its brach, what type of online course you want Free, from university etc

How long ago did you do your Masters? Youtube would be a good place to start, lots of conceptual knowledgeable on there, plus loads of tutorials on calculus and the other relevant areas of mathematics you might be interested in. Is there anything in particular you are looking to refresh?

I understand the frustration of forgetting important concepts in physics. It can be overwhelming to try and refresh your knowledge after a long break from the subject. However, there are several tips and tricks you can use to get back on track.

Firstly, I recommend starting by reviewing the fundamental principles and equations of physics. This will help you build a strong foundation and make it easier to understand more complex concepts later on.

Additionally, there are many online resources available to help you refresh your knowledge of physics. Websites such as Khan Academy and Coursera offer free courses and tutorials on various physics topics. These can be a great way to review and learn at your own pace.

Furthermore, consider reaching out to your former professors or colleagues for advice and recommendations. They may have specific suggestions for online courses or textbooks that can help you re-learn the material.

Lastly, don't be afraid to practice and engage with the material regularly. This can include working through practice problems, watching educational videos, or joining online study groups. By actively engaging with the material, you can solidify your understanding and retain the information better.

Remember, mastering physics takes time and effort, so be patient with yourself and don't be afraid to ask for help when needed. With dedication and the right resources, you can successfully refresh your knowledge and get back on track in your understanding of physics.
 

FAQ: Mastering Physics: Tips & Tricks to Refresh Your Knowledge & Get Back on Track

What is physics?

Physics is the branch of science that deals with the study of matter, energy, and the interactions between them. It seeks to understand and explain natural phenomena, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies.

Why is physics important?

Physics is important because it helps us understand the fundamental laws and principles that govern our universe. It also has practical applications in areas such as technology, medicine, and engineering.

What are some basic concepts of physics?

Some basic concepts of physics include motion, forces, energy, and matter. These concepts help us understand how objects move, interact with each other, and how energy is transferred and transformed.

How can I relearn physics if I have forgotten it?

There are many resources available to help you relearn physics, such as textbooks, online courses, and tutoring services. It is also helpful to review and practice basic mathematical concepts, as they are essential in understanding physics.

Can I still pursue a career in physics if I have forgotten it?

Yes, it is possible to pursue a career in physics even if you have forgotten some of the concepts. Many universities and colleges offer introductory courses to help students catch up. It is also important to continue studying and practicing to refresh your knowledge and skills.
