SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on understanding pulling, force, friction, and throwing problems in physics. Participants emphasize the importance of Newton's laws and the analysis of forces acting on a body for solving these problems. Additionally, they highlight the relevance of 2D kinematics, particularly projectile motion, as a key concept for addressing throwing problems. Clear demonstration of work is essential for effective assistance in these topics.

These are supposed to be so easy, but I still don't get them!

What exactly don't you get? We can't help you if you don't show us your work! Generally, the first one involves Newton's laws (also look for the forces on the body). The second one involves some simple 2D kinematics (look for topics on projectile motion).
