RRB NTPC / Group-D / JE – Last-Day Sheet


⚙️ Mechanics – Force & Motion

  • 1st Law: Body lazy to move → “MR. INERTIA” (M=Mass, R=Rest)
  • 2nd Law: F = ma → “F=Ma’am” (say it fast)
  • 3rd Law: Action = –Reaction → “Every slap has a equal-pain slap back”
  • Momentum: p = mv (p like “power-ride”)
  • Impulse: J = F·Δt = Δp (J=Jump in momentum)
Use & Throw Formula Unit Trick
Acceleration a = Δv / Δt m/s² “a-v-t” alphabet order
Centripetal F = mv²/r N “V-square ride on radius”
Kinetic energy KE = ½mv² J “Half-movie”

⚡ Electricity – 5-Minute Capsule

  • Ohm’s Law: V = IR → “Victory Is Rare”
  • Power trio: P = VI = I²R = V²/R (VIP-R)
  • Series: R↑ like “Resistors in line—length ↑→R↑”
  • Parallel: 1/R↓ like “Many paths—traffic ↓→R↓”
  • Joule heat: H = I²Rt (H=I-square Right)
Quantity Symbol SI Unit Remember
Charge q Coulomb “q=Couple”
Current I Ampere “I-Am”
Resistance R Ohm (Ω) “Oh-Mega”

🔋 Magnetism & EMI

  • Fleming’s LH rule (Motor) → “Motor needs Left-hand Power”
  • Fleming’s RH rule (Gen) → “Right gives Revenue (current)”
  • Lenz Law: “Opposes the cause” → Like “lazy kid pushes back work”
  • Transformer: Vs/Vp = Ns/Np = Ip/Is (step-up ↑V ↓I)

☀️ Light – Mirror & Lens

  • Mirror formula: 1/f = 1/v + 1/u (sign convention: “UV-light” u & v)
  • Lens power: P(D) = 1/f(m) → “Power is inverse of focus”
  • Speed of light: 3 × 10⁸ m/s → “Three-eight-straight”
Real Image Virtual Image Trick
Can catch on screen Can’t catch “Real-screen, Virtual-dream”
Inverted Erect “Real is rude (inverted)”

🌡️ Heat & Thermo

  • 0th Law: “Thermo-Handshake” – If A=B & B=C ⇒ A=C
  • 1st Law: ΔU = Q – W (Work by system) → “You-Q-W”
  • Cp – Cv = R (for ideal gas) → “Cp minus Cv is Railway (R)”
  • Black body: ε = 1 perfect radiator → “Black=1, White=0”

📡 Sound – Rapid Fire

  • Speed in air: 332 m/s @0 °C → “332-Zero”
  • Echo: 2d = v·t → minimum 0.1 s ⇒ 17 m distance
  • Pitch ∝ frequency, Loudness ∝ (Amplitude)²

🚀 Modern Physics – 3-Finger Rule

  • E = hf (Photon energy) → “E-hugs-frequency”
  • 1 eV = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ J → “Electron-volt is one-sixteen”
  • α-particle: 2p+2n → “Alpha-double-date”
  • β-particle: fast e⁻ → “Beta-beat-electron”
  • γ-ray: EM wave → “Gamma-gift-light”

🛠 Units & Dimensions – Cheat Table

Physical Qty Unit Dimension Quick
Force N (kg·m/s²) MLT⁻² “F=Ma”
Energy J (N·m) ML²T⁻² “Joule=Force-dot-meter”
Power W (J/s) ML²T⁻³ “Watt=Joule-per-sec”

✨ Exam-Trap Shortcuts

  • Weight ≠ Mass → Weight = mg (changes on Moon)
  • AC vs DC – “AC-Alternates, DC-Direct chalan”
  • Bulbs in series: if one fuses, all off (like “rail-chain”)
  • Fuse wire: low melting, high R → “Fuse-First-Sacrifice”

🔁 Quick Q&A (One-liner answers)

Q1. On doubling speed, KE becomes?4 times (KE ∝ v²)
Q2. Device to measure potential difference?Voltmeter
Q3. Colour of light with max wavelength in VIBGYOR?Red
Q4. Unit of magnetic flux?Weber (Wb)
Q5. Sound can’t travel in which medium?Vacuum

🎯 Last 60-Second Glance

  • g = 9.8 m/s² → “Nine-fine-eight”
  • 1 hp = 746 W → “Seven-four-six, horse-power mix”
  • Refractive index: μ = c/v > 1 always → “Mu-see-vee, always above sea”
