As I am currently taking a course about classical mechanics, I wanted to give a quick overview of the three main ways in which a classical problem can be solved in physics. We will also work through a simple example using the simple pendulum with mass $m$ and length $l$. This article will take you through the main steps you’ll have to take to tackle a problem and the derivation of the different methods.
