Since Dr. Brown has asked me to grade your homework and has encouraged you to submit works of art, I suggest a format which will make me very happy and will help you to clearly present your work. While this is not a required format, it will make it easier for me to look at your works of problem solving art.
Given: Restate the problem situation, sketch pictures to illustrate the problem, define variables as needed, etc.
Find: Clearly state what it is that you are supposed to find
Plan: List primary physics principles and laws which apply, any assumptions you make and then suggest how you plan to use these to attack the problem
Calculate: Clearly carry out the necessary calculations, algebra and calculus
Solution: Clearly state the solution — generally a sentence with appropriate numbers or formulaic results
