Physics yesterday, today & tomorrow

Greetings everyone!

If I am given 100 chances to write and rant about my favourite subject in school, I would pick Physics again and again, and I will never run out of words to describe the loads of fun in this subject.

Every day, I thank God for the opportunity I was granted to find the fun and easiness in this subject, unlike the way Chemistry is to me. Mehn, Chemistry was and is still difficult for me, and it's all because I wasn't opportune to learn it the way I learned Physics.

How did I come about this subject and find it lovely?

You'll agree with me that the subjects we see as difficult are often so because we weren't opportune or privileged to learn them from the root. Oh yes, Physics was my favourite subject in school simply because I had a very good teacher who taught us. The teacher who taught us had a very good and unique way of teaching that made it almost impossible for anyone not to like the subject he taught. I don't know his academic qualifications, but I think he was well grounded in Education while in school, because among all the teachers we had then, he was the best among everyone that taught 'reasonable' subjects.
I remember vividly when I started my first class in the secondary section, we had a youth corps member teaching us Physics, but we barely understood anything. If not for the remedy that was introduced in the form of the teacher I'm talking about, I wouldn't have gotten any clue on the Vernier caliper reading.

Something about Physics:
In those days, Physics was very fun and pure to us. We were initiated into many types of readings and conversions on instruments, especially the ones that we often saw. A typical example of this is the common way site engineers measure dimensions using feet instead of millimeters, which is the standard and purest form of measuring length.
I remember a particular time I went to a building site, and we were to peg a house. When the engineer handed the paper plan to me to call the next length to be measured, I called it in millimeters, and the engineer almost ran mad. Lol! Most of those site workers only know feet measurement and nothing more.

Physics is fun!

We knew the S.I. units of a lot of measurements, and it was a whole lot of fun—such as the S.I. unit of force, which is the Newton, how it came about, and that it's measured in meter per second squared (m/s²). Not just this, there are terms or easy formulas that are plugged into the brain anytime we come across words such as Velocity, Acceleration, and others.

Ohhh! It seems I'm exaggerating more and not making sense to people who do not like Physics.

Anyways, Physics is fun because we can calculate the distance an aeroplane can cover within a specific time while we are seated at home.
Crazy Physics! Lol!

Thanks for reading.

This is my entry to Hive-reachout prompt of the week.
