Peer reviewedCraig, T. W.; Kiang, D. – Physics Teacher, 1991
Presents a problem to determine conditions under which two identical masses, constrained to move along two perpendicular wires, would collide when positioned on the wires and released with no initial velocity. Offers a solution that utilizes the position of the center of mass and a computer simulation of the phenomenon. (MDH)

Peer reviewedAvital, Shmuel; Barbeau, Edward J. – For the Learning of Mathematics, 1991
Presents 13 examples in which the intuitive approach to solve the problem is often misleading. Presents analysis of these problems for five different sources of misleading intuitive generators: lack of analysis, unbalanced perception, improper analogy, improper generalization, and misuse of symmetry.
