Understand and apply a problem-solving procedure to solve problems using Newton’s laws of motion. Success in problem solving is obviously necessary to understand and apply physical principles, not to mention the more immediate need of passing exams. The basics of problem solving, presented earlier...
A Velocity Decomposition Approach for Solving the Immersed Interface Problem with Dirichlet Boundary ConditionsIn a previous study, we presented a second-order accurate method for computing the coupled motion of a viscous fluid and an elastic material interface with zero thickness (Beale and Layton, J...
The best approach to situational problem-solving questions is using theSTAR interview method. First, describe the situation. Next, talk about the task (problem) you’ve had. Then explain what actions you took. Finally, conclude with an outcome (result) gained. Here are several sample problem-so...
They fluttered down and landed about two and a half yards behind him. After a mental calculation, Fermi announced that the bomb's energy had equaled 10,000 tons of TNT. Sophisticated instruments, which took weeks to analyze the wave's velocity and pressure, confirmed Fermi's instant estimate...
In the course of problem solving, individuals are as- sumed to learn schematic knowledge about the problem domain, or at least to learn about the particular type of problem being solved. By schematic knowledge, we mean either general knowledge of the relationships be- tween important domain ...
There are aninfinitenumber of transforms. The most commonly used transforms in calculus are theLaplace transformand the Fourier transform. Fourier transforms are widely used in engineering and physics, while the Laplace transform is an efficient way of solving someordinary and partial differential equati...

fitted, one on either side of the chimney, slightly closer together behind the chimney than in front. As the engine advanced, air rushed between the two wings, became compressed as the path narrowed, and shot upwards and backwards with increased velocity immediately in the rear of the chimney...
Kinematic equations relate the variables of motion to one another. Each equation contains four variables. The variables include acceleration (a), time (t), displacement (d), final velocity (vf), and initial velocity (vi). If values of three variables are
