Module Overview:
Initially most of the content is from JC, like forces, dynamics, thermal dynamics, but there are new content like rotational dynamics, rolling motion and entropy (different content from chemistry).
Review:
The concepts aren’t hard to understand but doing the questions is a different game altogether. They are hard as it requires strong understanding and application of the concepts. My tutor helped to identify the steps to solving questions which is a big help. Qiu Leiju! There’s Mastering Physics every other week, graded with the best 7 of 8, so help each other out and ace it because it’s a very attainable 10%. There is only 2 labs a semester. The experiments haven’t changed since 2006 so if you have any seniors… yeah. There is viva for each lab though. There’s 3 lecture groups due to the large cohort although not the whole of engine is taking this module. My lecturer was Tan Meng Chuan aka Tony Stark. He digresses too much for me so it can become a little frustrating but there’s nothing wrong with his teaching. It’ll take more effort to get a good grade but tutorials is every fortnight.
