Physics Approach
assesses a solver's skill at selecting appropriate physics concepts and principle(s) to use in solving the problem. Here the term concept is defined to be a general physics idea, such as the basic concept of “vector” or specific concepts of “momentum” and “average velocity”. The term principle is defined to be a fundamental physics rule or law used to describe objects and their interactions, such as the law of conservation of energy, Newton's second law, or Ohm's law.
