NDA Physics Notes – Concepts, Formulas & PYQs
One of the most scoring parts of the NDA GAT paper is the Physics section. It can be asked from a range of topics, like Motion, Electricity, or Heat, but whatever the case, questions from Physics are a key ingredient in the General Ability Test. That’s why we’ve served up to you NDA Physics Notes that are of a chapter-wise nature, that are in a finely-tuned, concept-oriented mode, and that are definitely aligned with the kinds of questions you can expect to see on the exam.
At JOVIK Defence Prep, we design our Physics notes for two groups of students: NDA Foundation students, who prepare while taking Class 11/12, and full-time Target Aspirants. Both these groups receive our notes with a dual mandate: to build clarity with the material and to retain the essential concepts for exam day.
Chapters Covered in NDA Physics
Our NDA Physics Notes strictly follow the UPSC NDA syllabus and cover the most asked chapters:
- Motion – Types of motion, equations, displacement, velocity, acceleration
