Physics is good for you.

Hello, I'm 13 and I am studying for my HSC (Australian, more broader variant of the A - Levels). I am a gifted and high potential student with exceptional abilities in Physics and it hurts me when someone says 'Physics is rubbish' or its indecent equivalents. People call me a variety of injurious names and compare me to figures such as Isaac Newton et cetera. I am a physicist, and it hurts when someone says verbal detritus relating to Physics. I have made a career by helping Year 12s (I'm in Year 7) by making them cheating sheets and formulae books.
Do you think I should continue making answer sheets, laden with the formulae I have invented or just stop and focus on my exams? Also, will Study vs Popularity be considered a vector or scalar?

none of this post reads very well. sounds like you’ve used a thesaurus for most words. nonetheless studying pure science whether it be physics, biology or chemistry is a dying market. You’re better off using your knowledge to go into a related field that’s actually making money, like engineering. Don’t know why it upsets you that you’re being compared to Newton tbh, seems like that would be the highest form of praise to someone like you. And lastly as someone who also studies physics, your question at the end makes no sense. Feel like i’m being rage baited rn

what formula did you invent

It can be hurtful when people make fun of subjects which you are passionate about but it shouldn’t bother you because people are allowed to have differing opinions to you :yep:
It’s great that you’re making a career helping people to appreciate and understand physics at a young age. Your consideration and hard work will pay off in the future im sure 🙂
Focus on your exams, theyre more important than nicely formatting some knowledge organisers. Maybe you should consider making a website so you can distribute your resources (i did this and found it rewarding!).
The measurement of study vs popularity isnt really a thing but could be fun to come to your own conclusion on whether its vector or scalar if it pleases you

I'm a Physics student and reading this I am struggling to believe it.
Study can be vector (magnitude and direction), you learn lots from it and it will take you somewhere. Popularity is arguably scalar as you have lots of attention but it gets you nowhere (arguably because you can have connections so It can help you). But that's a load of rubbish.

what formula did you invent

The Vasilenkova Equation, which is rather similar to F=ma but includes the variables for turbulent flow and air resistance!

What are the variables for turbulent flow and air resistance? From what I remember of my fluid dynamics course, F = ma was already the main component of it

Any evidence of this?

Thank you for your support!

You don't get jokes, and by the way, I don't use thesauruses, digital or physical, since they make me look dumb.

This is to another person who was mean to me on here, but they deleted their comment.
