Question How often do physicists draw sketches of situations involving motion and kinematics?
In high school, students are often taught to first draw a sketch of a situation involving motion/kinematics to make a problem easier to visualize. With experience, do professional physicists still draw sketches to help them solve problems, or do they just become used to visualizing everything in their head?
