#studyblr notes

I tried time blocking tasks with pomodoro method seriously this time to accelerate my study (in Italian I'd say "to put pepper on my ass") and I must say I found it very helpful!

I managed to finish by the early afternoon the amount of work I normally do in an entire day, leaving me time to start the next history chapter. I'm also pretty happy with the quality of my study today!

While the previous times I only used the timer to focus on one long assignment, this time I did it to set a deadline or measure my tasks timewise, to correlate and visualise a bit more clearly how much I needed to do and how much it would realistically take me.

My focus time is already quite long and I have a good routine of alternating intense study hours and quick refreshing pauses, but what slows me is always considering my impending tasks only through time or extension, quite never correlating the two.

My problem has always been time management when the deadlines are still far, knowing that stresses me even more and considering the whole amount of work left scares me every time, so I end up spending more time to make strict unrealistic plans to co-opt my future self into being consistent rather than analysing and breaking through the tasks I have ahead of me to make them feel as simple and as comprehensible as I can.

Once I noticed the amount of pages I could study and write in 25 minutes, the paragraphs and chapters begin to feel way more manageable.

spent my afternoon working on next weeks seminar prep for my favourite module instead of doing coursework that’s due in tomorrow. i will now be spending my night in the library getting that done :( ft a photo from my visit to York this weekend!

According to the law, every object in the universe attracts every other object in the universe with the force which is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

The force is directly proportional to the product of their masses, i.e, F ≈ m1 x m2.

F = (G x m1 x m2) / d²

where F is the force, G is the universal constant for gravity, m1 and m2 are the masses, and d is the distance.

IMPORTANCE OF THE LAW

It successfully explained several phenomena which were believed to be unconnected

The force that binds us to the Earth

The motion of moon around the sun

The tides due to moon and sun

The motion of planets around the sun

Rainfall and Snowfall due to this force

Atmosphere of earth is possible due to this.

The prediction of solar and lunar eclipse.

Galileo concluded that the bodies having different masses dropped simultaneously hit the ground at the same time if air resistance is neglected.

g

acceleration due to gravity

acceleration produced in a body freely falling under the actions of gravitational pull of the earth

the value of g is different at diff points of the earth

it decreases as we go higher from surface

G

universal gravitational constant

G is the gravitational force between 2 objects of unit masses seperated by unit distance

the value of G is 6.7 x 10¹¹ Nm² / km²

The value of G does not change with jeight or depth

MASS AND WEIGHT

Mass is the quantity of matter contained in an object. The mass of an object is constant an dir is the measure of its inertia. It can never be zero.

Weight is the force with which the earth attracts an object. It is measured in Newton and it can be zero at the centre of earth. It is a variable and vector quantity.

My life in pictures: autumn 2020

Little update! I took this semester off from school because I didn’t want to be online only — but I’ve decided I need to continue my degree! It’s been a hard decision but I’ll be taking classes in the spring to keep going with my master’s degree, even if they’re all online 💫
