Why is Physics so hard?
So, you would think that physics wouldn't be so difficult because all it's really doing is telling us stuff that we already know like, if you hold up a pencil and let go, it will fall because of gravity. We also know that waves travel at different frequencies, that's how we hear different notes when played on a piano--they have a different frequency. Ok, so why is physics so hard? Why do I need to know that when two waves travel on the same surface (like a string) that you can add their equations together? I just don't understand how things that we see, can be made so difficult when we put them into equation form!

Ok, can I just say that I think you are awesome for going back to school? I mean it--I need to be more like you...
