I have to say the new book is better than the old one and i've only walked through chapter one. The last one had graphs that didn't make sense to me and tricks that didn't make sense to me.
I actually understood what i read, save for that turbo thing which i'm just a teeny little bit fuzzy on. The last time i read the old book, i didn't feel like i picked up anything. This time, i saw the stuff that's review and i learned new stuff, especially when it comes to projectiles. the book mentions equations 1.28 and 1.30 and the last equation in the chapter is 1.27. Not sure what they are talking about.
Last time i did their physics passages, i was so frustrated. When i did the first passage today, i felt frustrated. I think i had a block in thought where i just didn't know what to do about the problem and that got me frustrated. Reviewing the first problem set made me realize the questions were easy and i either wasn't thinking or reasoning well or whatever. Anyway, 2nd set of passage i had 6/7 and the last set i had 5/7. Each of the questions i had wrong was not knowing which equation to use and i think that boils down to somewhat not understanding the questions or some concepts.
I'm wondering if it's easy because i've gone through nova. Not sure. The questions reinforced certain concepts that i'd forgotten and final analysis is that i need to read critically and think when answering these questions. Think, yes, think!
