learn physics from examples.?

Is it true that you learn most from the examples. If it is, how do you go about extracting the most knowledge from every example?
 
What if...

That's how you extract the most from each example.

If you example evoked F = ma to solve for F. Change the problem around. Make up an F and acceleration, and solve for m. Then make up another one that solves for a. Get really imaginative and assume a body of volume V and density rho; then do F = ma etc.

That's how you get the most out of examples...what if.
 
perhaps u know that we invented physics from the things we see......no one made it from before.
u receive shock from a wire.......u conclude current flows and ur body is a conductor.
 
Different people learn best in different ways. Some people can get away with just reading the book. Others need to do some examples.

My trick is to read the book, make my own notes of what it says, then do some examples AND mark my work. There's absolutely no point doing example questions if you don't know how well you are doing.

That works for me anyway. You'll have to work out how you learn best.

When you are doing examples, you'll normally be given a question and then a worked answer (most good textbooks have these). Do the question yourself before looking at the answer, so you get practice at actually doing it yourself. A lot of people will just read the worked answer but not learn anything. Then do the questions at the end of the chapter and see how well you do.
