Build physics and maths flashcards from the material you already have

Physics and maths only stick when you return to them often, and physics and maths tutor flashcards make that routine easy to build from the notes you already have. Upload a lecture PDF, a slide deck, or a photo of a worked problem, and DeckOwl pulls out the definitions, formulas and key steps as cards.

  • Formulas with units and the conditions where they apply
  • Definitions of terms such as velocity, torque or eigenvalue
  • Worked-problem steps you can rehearse out loud
  • Checks on common mistakes, such as sign errors in kinematics
Example physics and maths flashcards
State Newton's second law.Net force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma), so a larger net force gives a larger acceleration for the same mass.
What is the derivative of sin(x)?cos(x), which you need when finding rates of change of oscillating quantities.
What is the SI unit of force?The newton (N), equal to 1 kg·m/s², so units can check your force calculations.
What does the integral of velocity with respect to time give?Displacement, the change in position over the interval, not the total distance travelled.
What is the quadratic formula?x = (−b ± √(b² − 4ac)) / 2a, which solves ax² + bx + c = 0 when a is not zero.

Cards from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages, and get flashcards built from them.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back on a schedule that adjusts to what you forget, so formulas and definitions stick.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Switch to multiple choice, true or false, or short answer quizzes with explanations, or map a topic as a mind map.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a lecture PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a worked problem.

Review the cards

Check the physics and maths cards and edit any that need sharper wording.

Study on a schedule

Spaced repetition brings back the cards you are about to forget.

Good cards for these subjects ask for one idea at a time: a law and its units, a formula and the conditions where it applies, or the first move in a standard problem type. Spaced repetition then schedules the harder cards more often, so your study time goes to what you keep forgetting.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for a physics or maths unit?

Aim for one card per formula, definition or problem step rather than a fixed number. A typical lecture often yields a few dozen cards, and short daily reviews work better than one long cram session.

Is it better to write my own flashcards or generate them from notes?

Writing cards yourself makes you think about each idea, which helps. Generating them from your own notes saves time, and you can then edit any card that misses the point, so the two approaches work well together.

Does DeckOwl work on a free account?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but exports are not included. Plus, at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month, adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.

Can I get a discount as a student?

Students get 40% off with a school email. No credit card is needed to start.
