Living Physics Portal: Telling the story

Abstract: The problems in this collection have been used in exams and quizzes in our NEXUS/Physics classes and are presented here without solutions. They are drawn from across the curriculum and require students to think about the physics of "what's happening" and to "tell the story." Many of these problems also require students to interpret the physics of what's happening in a graph.
