I am writing exams. I am not in a university. i.e., this is not graded.
This is not HW help tbh! I just want to understand it and understand how to solve it. I don't have enough time to ponder over each question
Textbook companies along with Chegg (which is owned by a textbook company IIRC), and organizations like College Board and World News and Report form what you might call the Educational Industrial Complex. Just like Big Pharma or Big Tech, their goal is power through exploitation. You might check out OpenStax for a text (it's free) and r/physics (as much as I'd prefer not sending people to reddit). Or DM me. I'd be glad to help. It's literally my job.
I do have a suggestion. Look at what answers you can. Then, revisit the material in a month. If you can reproduce it cold, then your approach is a good one. If not, I suggest you approach it the way everyone preceding you has ever understood it: ponder.
If you take me up on helping, I don't want to waste your time. I'm not going to solve your homework. I'm going to engage in Socratic dialog, asking you questions until you figure it out on your own.
Lastly, given that I'm old and that I have had more than one student, I don't believe you. ;)
