Physics as a subject is always considered a difficult subject that requires special skills for excelling. There is an organised way to study Physics for scoring well. Student should have firstly the concept understanding then the application of the concepts in Numerical and other questions.
Guiding students on how they can score well with an organised approach, Physics teacher Saroj Mishra gives important topics and essential questions to revise for board exams.
Physics New Exam Pattern
This exam pattern is changed. In the question Paper there are four sections. Section A contains objective type questions. It has 20 questions each of 1 marks. Under this category multiple choice questions and fill in the blanks are introduced for the first time, these will play vital role in the scoring of the students in the subject.
Section B and Section C contains 7 questions of 2 marks and 3 marks respectively. Section D contains 3 questions of 5 marks. There is no overall choice, however internal choice is provided in 2 questions of 1 mark, 2 questions of 2 marks, 1 question of 3 marks and all 3 questions of 5 marks.
Topic weightage
1. Electrostatics and current electricity: 16 marks.
2. Magnetic effects of current, magnetism, electromagnetic induction and alternating: 17 marks.
3. EM waves and Optics: 18marks.
4. Dual nature of matter and radiation, atoms and nuclei:12 marks
5. Electronic devices: 7 marks
How to prepare for Physics exam?
• Best way of preparing is practice the derivations, diagrams associated and the related numerical.
• Study thoroughly from NCERT book. You must study examples and the exercise given at the end.
• Solve 3 to 5 practice papers after completing the revision will give the confidence to the students as well the specific points which they need to remember.
• Do not bother yourself much if any particular question is not striking at that moment, proceed further later on you can get back to that question.
• Step wise marking is done during correction, so write all the required steps, always start with the formula for the numerical and specify the unit in the answer and attempt all questions.
