| Feb 4, 2015 at 11:28 | comment | added | Fred | Another homework-like question has appear: engineering.stackexchange.com/questions/442/… <br/>I've asked the person posting the question to re-write it so that it is not a maths question but and engineering one & to write in a way so that it cannot be interpreted as a homework question. If I was heavy handed in what I did please let me know. | |
| Feb 4, 2015 at 8:30 | comment | added | Fred | One way to differentiate between homework questions & questions from hobby people is to consider how realistic is what is being asked. In that truck question, a 190 kg tip truck on a 38 degree slope doesn't sound like something a hobby person would be involved with. It's a very light tip truck and a very steep slope - 78%, 1:2.8 | |
