QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE

Physics Preparation FAQs

Find answers about Physics preparation, concept videos, practice questions and revision on PrepShots.

Is physics important for government exams?

Yes. Physics is an important part of General Science in exams such as RRB Group D, SSC CGL, SSC GD and RRB Technician. Common topics include motion, work and energy, electricity, light and measurement. PrepShots helps you focus on exam-relevant concepts through short video previews, chapter-wise previous-year questions (PYQs) and quick revision resources.

Is NCERT enough for physics in government exams?

NCERT Science books for Classes 6 to 10 build a strong foundation for many general government exams. Technical and specialist exams may require additional topics and numerical practice. Use PrepShots chapter-wise PYQs, concept videos and question filters alongside NCERT to understand what your target exam actually asks.

How should I start preparing physics for a government exam?

Begin with basic units, motion, force, work, power and energy. Then study electricity, heat, sound and optics according to your exam syllabus. On PrepShots, watch a short concept preview and practise related chapter-wise or exam-wise questions. Revise key formulas regularly and check your mistakes after each practice session.

Can I prepare physics through videos and audio?

Yes. Short videos can help you visualise motion, circuits, light and other Physics concepts, while audio lessons can support quick revision of definitions and principles. Explore PrepShots concept previews and the audiobook catalogue, then solve practice questions. For formulas and numerical problems, written practice is still essential.

How do I remember physics formulas and concepts easily?

Keep a short formula sheet with units, symbols and one solved example for each important concept. Revise it regularly and practise questions that apply the same formula in different ways. PrepShots bite-sized videos and topic-wise previous-year questions help you revisit difficult concepts and test your recall before the exam.

How do I find a video on a particular physics topic?

Choose a series from the Physics Video Library dropdown or search for the lesson you need. You can also use quick topic chips such as Motion, Electricity, Light & Optics, Heat and Waves. PrepShots helps you find a relevant short preview without scrolling through a long video course.
