3. List the desired (unknown) information.
4. Draw a diagram of the problem situation.
5. Write down formulas that may be useful.
6. Select the appropriate formula.
7. Re-check information or infer missing data if needed.
8. Substitute known values into the formula.
9. Solve for the unknown variable.
10. Check that the answer is reasonable and complete.
11. Clearly box in the answer with correct units
