There is no easy way, you must study and concentrate, don’t move to a higher level until you fully understand what you have studied. I can recommend an excellent reference book “Asimov’s New Guide To Science.”

I don’t know if Physics is an exciting subject to deal with but you have to learn it in order to learn the fundamental laws of nature and to try to apply these laws to one’s profession.

For example, you will find out what electricity is and how can be harnessed to do useful things or work like provide light or heat, provide power to machines that make our lives easier and better, and etc.

If you want to learn Physics then here are some resources that may help…

You can use Google.com to find free tutorials, tutoring, and other information

Amazon.com has many books, DVDs, software and etc. for learning many things

If you want to do well then you should try to spend as much time and effort to study and learn this subject…and make sure you get plenty of rest, sleep, and exercise in order to get plenty of energy to learn this complicated subject.

Good luck and I hope this helps!
