Hi Y'all,
I'm currently going through my physics content (sadly my weakest area) and I find myself stuck on forces/work/equilibrium for the last 3 weeks. I went through all my questions in the EK 1001 books, took the section tests in the EK physics book, and even a couple in my undergrad physics textbook.
The problem is that I keep messing up the forces, I just don't "see" the forces in play, and how they interact with each other. Especially when combining multiple forces: ie- centripetal force at the end of a ski slope... I was thinking that perhaps I should just practice drawing free-body diagrams so I don't mess up. Anyone know of a resource where I can practice something like that?
Any other input appreciated.
Thanks
