Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around seeking assistance with grade 12 physics, specifically focusing on tension problems. Participants express interest in navigating the forum to find appropriate resources for help with both conceptual questions and specific textbook exercises.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses a need for help with tension problems in grade 12 physics.
  • Another participant welcomes the inquiry and suggests posting questions in the appropriate sub-forum, specifically recommending "General Physics" for general questions and "Homework and Coursework Questions" for specific exercises.
  • There is a light-hearted exchange about a nickname related to a friendly dog, which does not pertain to the physics topic but adds a personal touch to the discussion.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the need to post questions in the correct sub-forum for effective assistance, but the specific physics questions have not yet been articulated or discussed in detail.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not delve into specific tension problems or the underlying physics concepts, as the focus is primarily on navigating the forum and establishing communication.

Who May Find This Useful

Parents of high school students seeking help with physics, students looking for guidance on forum usage, and anyone interested in grade 12 physics topics.

Welcome to the forum. Nice to see a mom helping her kid with a STEM subject.

Just post your questions in the proper sub-forum (General Physics is probably a good place to start) and be sure to read the forum rules before posting.
 
thanks

You are welcome. By the way, what are you angry about :smile:
 
its an old nickname that came from our super friendly and never angry dog zeena.

Ah ha. Well, I'm glad to hear you're not angry. :smile:
 
Note that we have separate forums for getting help with solving specific textbook-type exercises (whether assigned in school or for self-study), and for asking general conceptual questions.

For help with exercises, go to "Homework and Coursework Questions" (from the forum home page), then choose "Introductory Physics Homework."

For general questions, the "General Physics" forum on the home page is a good place to start, as phinds noted.
 
thanks
