A dynamics problem involving 3d motion. I solve the problem using vector arithmetic rather than vector diagrams, which would be quite difficult. In my opinion getting students use to daily use of matrix algebra makes doing such problems easier. The problem is that the student has to learn to "trust the math" rather than a visual vector diagram.
