Frequently Asked Questions
Is kinematics important for JEE Mains?
Kinematics is an important topic for JEE exams. It consists mainly of one-dimensional and two-dimensional motion, and question papers are formed from their applications.
Kinematics includes objects' motion in the form of displacement, velocity, acceleration, and equations of motion. Some of them are:
- Free Fall: Determining the time taken for an object to fall from a certain height or its final speed upon reaching the ground.
- Projectile Motion: Determining the path, range, maximum height, and time of flight of a projectile fired at an angle.
- Uniform Circular Motion: Determining expressions for centripetal acceleration, tangential velocity, and total acceleration in circular motion.
- Relative Motion: Determining the motion of two objects by reversing the frame of reference and determining their displacement and relative velocity.
Which is the hardest topic in JEE Mains?
According to trends, the Physics section of JEE Main is said to be the most challenging among other sections, the Maths sections will be of moderate difficulty level and the Chemistry sections will be easy-moderate.
| Subject | Topic | Difficulty Level (Subjective) | Reported Difficulty (% of Candidates |
| Physics | Rotational Motion | High | 65 % |
| Physics | Electromagnetic & Induction & AC | High High | 60 % |
| Chemistry | Organic Mechanisms | High | 70 % |
| Chemistry | Physical Chemistry (Equilibrium/ Numericals) | High | 68 % |
| Mathematics | 3D Geometry | High | 55 % |
| Mathematics | Integration | High | 50 % |
Was JEE Main 2024 Easier Than 2023?
Here is a brief comparison of two years:
Physics: Both the years were of moderate standard. 2024 contained slightly more numerical questions, but apart from that the difficulty was extremely close.
Chemistry: 2024 was slightly easier than 2023, with higher theoretical ones and better Inorganic Chemistry representation, but both the years were NCERT concept-based equally.
Mathematics: 2024 proved to be slightly more difficult than 2023, particularly due to the lengthy questions from topics like Vectors, Calculus, and Coordinate Geometry.
