Hi Louis,

You've submitted at one time nine problems or so, evidently from one day's or week's assignment in a Physics course. That's spamming Wyzant, it's not what the "Ask an Expert" is intended for. If you are really totally clueless on all of this, please consider engaging a regular Wyzant tutor. There are many options for this.
