How Did Your Approach to Mechanics Work Out?

When you were an undergraduate trying to master the fundamentals of engineering, you initially adopted an approach to studying that will be familiar to many students. What was that approach, and how did it work out for ou in your college course on mechanics? Yes, uford, for those of listeners that have enough sense not to major in engineering, mechanics is this branch of physics that deals with objects at rest and in motion. It requires you to go from plugging numbers into equations to actually visualizing how the concepts work in the world. And so before that third exam, i stopped memorizing dozens of other equations and tangential ideas. I didn't need to know a bunch of forces and masses
