Paper 3 SPM 2010 Tips

Form 4
1. Experiment on physic's law..e.g gases law, etc
2. Experiment on physics' formula..e.g P=hpg , 1/f =1/u+1/v (light)

Form 5
1. Experiment of Interference of wave (water or sound or light wave)
2. Experiment of Electricity (Length of wire affect resistance or Thickness of wire affect resistance or temperature affect resistance)
