I just read up on this. Honestly, if someone had asked me to come up with a 
programmatical solution to this physical problem, I could not do it to save my 
life. I don't know why. I consider myself to be fairly intelligent, but I 
cannot turn physical problems like this into a formula. 

I stumbled at this on a lot of tests in school. Whenever it got to these kinds 
of problems I would stop dead in my tracks, even when the teacher said to skip 
over the problems we could not solve. I tried to work out the relationships of 
the physical problem to the mathemetical expression of it and I could not go on 
until I "saw" in my head how it all worked and why. 

I could probably get through the physical puzzle fine and "see" why it had to 
work that way, but to convert it to a formula is quite beyond me. <sigh> Very 
frustrating. This is probably why I could never be a very good developer, at 
least when it comes to this sort of thing.
