Homework Due Thursday December 16, 2010

In a white, letter-sized page, typed and printed out, you will create 2 word problems like the ones we have been solving in class. These problems must have enough information so that somebody else can solve them. The problems must include one unknown and all the rest of the information. Ex. The problem asks you to find the acceleration of an object, and you give each force involved, and the mass of the object.

You will be graded in this assignament on how well you present the problem, the level of difficulty, and if other classmates are able to solve it. People should be able to create a pictorial model and a free body diagram out of your problems, as well as to solve it.

DON'T FORGET TO PUT ALL YOUR INFORMATION ON THE HOMEWORK (name, list no, group, date, etc)
