Physics Problem Solver — Free Step-by-Step Mechanics, Electricity & More

Mechanics, electricity, magnetism, thermodynamics, optics — paste your physics problem or photograph the textbook page and get a worked solution with each step explained.

यह कैसे काम करता है

  1. 01

    Enter or photograph the problem

    Paste a physics problem in plain text, type equations, or upload a photo of the textbook page.

  2. 02

    ScanSolve sets up the diagram

    ScanSolve identifies the relevant principle (Newton’s laws, conservation of energy, Kirchhoff, etc.) and writes the setup equations.

  3. 03

    Solve and interpret

    Each step shows the equation, substitution, and unit. The final answer is interpreted in physical context, not just a number.

ScanSolve को क्या अलग बनाता है

  • Free-body diagrams in steps

    ScanSolve walks you through which forces act, in which directions, and writes Newton’s second law for each axis. Most generic AI tools skip the diagram and go straight to numbers.

  • Unit tracking through the whole problem

    Every step shows units, conversions are explicit, and the final answer arrives with the right units. Catches dimensional-analysis errors automatically.

  • All sub-fields covered

    Mechanics, kinematics, dynamics, energy, momentum, rotational motion, fluids, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, circuits, optics, modern physics — full curriculum.

  • AP Physics aligned

    Solutions match AP Physics 1, 2, C: Mechanics, and C: E&M conventions, including FRQ-style step-by-step expectations.

  • Works on photo + text

    Snap a photo of a problem with a circuit diagram, an inclined-plane sketch, or a wave graph. Vision models read it and solve.

यह क्या-क्या cover करता है

  • AP Physics 1 & 2

    Algebra-based mechanics, fluids, thermo, waves, optics, modern physics.

  • AP Physics C

    Calculus-based mechanics + E&M with full integral/derivative reasoning.

  • College intro physics

    Halliday/Resnick, Knight, Young & Freedman — typical textbook problem styles.

  • IB Physics

    Curriculum-aligned with HL/SL marking schemes.

  • GCSE / IGCSE Physics

    Step-by-step solutions to UK exam-board problems.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल

Can ScanSolve draw free-body diagrams?

ScanSolve describes the free-body diagram in the solution (which forces act, in which directions, and the magnitudes), and writes Newton’s laws for each axis. It currently doesn’t output rendered diagram images, but the description is explicit enough to draw it yourself.

Does it solve circuit problems?

Yes — Kirchhoff’s laws, Thevenin/Norton equivalents, RC and RL transients, AC analysis. Photo a circuit and ScanSolve identifies components and solves.

How does ScanSolve compare to Symbolab for physics?

Symbolab is math-only and can’t solve physics word problems. ScanSolve is built for science homework end-to-end — it handles the physics reasoning, not just the algebra.

Is the physics solver free?

Yes. 5 free step-by-step solutions per day, no card required. Pro ($89.99/year, about $7.50/month, or $9.99/week) unlocks unlimited solves.
