SPM Tips 2009 : Form 5

As promised before, today i'm gonna list out important SPM checklist for form5 topics.

Form 5 P2 Checklist:

Chpt 1 :
Undrstanding wave graph,( frequency,period,wavelength), resonance
Wave refraction ( for water,sound & light)
Wave interference ( for water,sound & light)

Chpt 2:
Electric field,Ohms Law, Emf & Internal resistance, Power efficiency & Transmission line

Chpt 3:
Electromagnet & Application(motor etc), Electromagnet Strenght Factors
Induction & Application, (Lenz +Faradayslaw, generator & etc)

Chapt 4:
CRO, Transistor circuit(amplifier+switch), Logic GATES Application

Chapt 5:
Radioisotope application, Half Life, Nuclear Fusion+Nuclear reactor

U are welcome to discuss other tips u've receicved in the comment section. However any topic can be asked in paper 1 & 3. In other words u need to study almost all subtopics in order to get an A (;
..so all the best & Good luck!

SPM 2009 Tips

hi everyone..its only 20 days left for exam. Hope u guys r doin well with your final preparation. Lately so many students asked me tips on physics paper. As for me i dont call it spot questions, otherwise if all i spot kena, then kementerian might chase me for soalan bocor ;) .However i do provide my tuition student with detailed checklist for them to polish their skills on some particular topics. So here i summarize it down for your reference, but this is meant for paper 2 only. If u ask me tips about paper 3, please bank in to my account rm 50 & i'll reveal everything ;) hehe..(just kiddin)

Form 4 P2 checklist:
Chap 1 - Measuring instrument,zero error,sensitivity,accuracy

Chap 2 - Linear graph,ticker tape, inertia, momentum,RESOLVING FORCES,
equilibrium forces,lift, conservation of energy

Chap 3 - Gas & atmospheric pressure,manometer+barometer), archimedes (floating principle,xperiment+application), Bernoulli

Chap 4 - thermal equilbrium, thermometer specs,specific heat capacity(application)latent heat,gas law

Chap 5 - Lenses (drawing & application:micro+teleskop & etc), refraction(drawing & application),
plane mirror stuff, curved mirror application

ok..i have to go 4 class rite now..i'll discuss more on F5 soon. But if u wanna share other physics tips that u've gained from other seminar u can share it in the comment section below. Sharing is CARING :)Who knows if u share it with others, inshaAllah GOD will do u a favor in SPM.
However no SPAM please!!!

SPM tips: Physics Principle

Hi.. how r u guys..hope u r doing well with your final preparation. Recently so many student asked me for SPM tips or spot question. To tell u the truth, in SPM the questions sometimes can be so unpredictable, especially the last section of paper3 as well as section B & C paper2.
By the way i'm trying my best to share with u about my guts feeling about this year's paper. I think this year one or two of the F4 physics principle that u've learned could be asked in in either paper 2/3. Among all of them, i think the favorate that shall be asked is Archimedes Principle. If u ask which paper ( P2 or P3) it shall be asked..i straight away will say I' dont know!! To be safe u need to study anything about this principle. Find questions on these principle, & try them out.Make sure u study its definition,experiment, calculations, & the most important its APPLICATION.

In the table below i listed out some of the principles that might be a favorate in this year paper. I rated it with star..if theres no star rated, that means it is not among the favorate in paper 2. However all of this principle can be asked in paper1. Like it or not u need to study them all :)
Good luck!!!

Physics Principle	MEANING/DEFINITION
The principle of conservation of momentum (***)	The total momentum of a system is constant, if no external force acts on the system. Jumlah momentum sebelum perlanggaran = Jumlah momentum selepas perlanggaran.
The principle of conservation of energy (***)	State that the energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can be transformed from one form to another, but the total energy in a system is constant. Menyatakan bahawa tenaga tidak boleh dicipta atau dimusnahkan tetapi boleh berubah bentuk ke benntuk yg lain.
Archimedes’ principle Prinsip Archimedes (*****)	State that an object, whether completely or partially immersed in a fluid is acted on by a buoyant force which is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. Menyatakan bahawa jasad yang direndam atau separa rendam dalam bendalir akan ditindakkan oleh satu daya julangan ke atas yang sama nilai dengan berat bendalir yang tersesar oleh jasad itu.
Bernoulli’s principle Prinsip Bernoulli (***)	State that the in a steady flow of a fluid the pressure of the fluid decreases when the velocity of the fluid increases. Menyatakan bahawa kawasan bendalir yang bergerak dengan halaju tinggi akan menghasilkan tekanan yang lebih rendah.
Pascal principle Prinsip Pascal	State that in an enclosed fluid an externally applied pressure is transmitted uniformly in all directions. Menyatakan bahawa tekanan yang dikenakan pada satu titik cecair akan dipindahkan ke seluruh cecair.

A1 Tips: Impossible is NOTHING!

(This post is specially dedicated to my SPM 2009 student)

By the time i write this post, most of u have finished your trial exam. Perhaps this week, u'll be gettin your physics & other trial result. I really hope they will give your trial paper by this week. At least u can analyse your mistakes & try to fix them as soon as possible.

My dear student ..
October-November is the crucial period before your 'BIG' day. Your trial result will give a huge impact on your final preparation. This impact can either be positive or negative. It depends on your mental & spiritual strength. You must be mentally strong to accept your trial result. For those who got a good result, my only advice is do not be over confidence. Polish your strength & improve your weakest point.

However, IF the results do not favor u, its not the time to overkill yourself. U must learn to bounce back! Learn from the great football team like manU, Arsenal,Chelsea & Liverpool! They may had lost a game today..but they 've bounced back& win the next battle. These people can only do it by having courage to learn from their own mistakes. U must formulate their winning attitude!..U must have this kind of attitude!!!

The countdown before your SPM is like a marathon race..U must always look forward. Its time for u to keep on running faster,faster & faster! This is the time for u to sprint until last drop of your sweat! U must stay focus, and try your BEST to finish the race with dignity & respect after all these tireless effort. I warn u!!..this is not the time to look backward or crying and having fear unnecessarily. FEAR is a False Evidence Appearing Real. Do not keep on falling into its trap! U need to BOUNCE back!
Be strong! Think positive! Believe in yourself! Always whisper to your heart..
I'll never give up!
I'll give my best!
I'll get a better result!
I want my parent to be proud of me!!
Nothing Impossible!!
I can do it!!

At this crucial moment, your emotional & spiritual level must be 'extra charged' with prayers & hope to Allah. I'm sure everyone of u have at least put some effort.This is where the tawakkal concept gonna takes place. Pray a lot!!Ask your parent to pray for u!Then,give your best final effort. JUST DO IT and remember....IMPOSSIBLE is NOTHING...
