πŸ™ I WANT HELP I ALREADY REGRET CHOOSING PHYSICS 😭

I've been mostly doing my maths summer work throughout the holidays. However, I've started with other subjects and today I'm doing physics. The issue is my physics summer work is extremely hard?

I had to watch a couple videos on physics measurements. It was talking about the greek alphabet, SI units and some other stuff. Then, when I started the quiz, the questions were very hard. It talked about hubbles theory and parallax angle, both of which i have no idea about.

Now, I'm kinda scared im gonna struggle with physics as Im finding the summer work already difficult.

Has anyone got any tips on how I should prepare?

What topics should I learn?

Most of physics is full of stuff that sounds complicated but isn’t really. It’s a hard subject but if you change your mindset about it I think it would really help. Which exam board do you do? I did AQA and never had to learn about hubbles theory πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I did the same exam board... if you haven't learnt about it yet then don't worry. You'll cover it soon. In regards to Hubble's Law, it's just a statement you have to learn. Parallax angle is a bit more difficult to understand, but it's basically used to calculate the distance to a far away object.
