We'll be covering the fundamentals of physics, including
﻿
Vectors and Kinematics
Forces
Momentum and Collisions
Work, Power and Energy
﻿
This is a beginner friendly series, so we will be starting from scratch, and work our way up from there.

View Profile

I'm a high school student from MH, India. I like fiction, and love Chemistry and Physics with everything in me. I attempt at art sporadically. Having a greater understanding of the world gives me the ability to enjoy it better. Madhyama Purna in Indian Classical Music (Distinction). I like reading, animation media, comics, tv shows and music. Looking forward to more learning!
