To determine

To Explain: The importance of creating pictorial and physical models before trying to solve an equationin a physics problem.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Pictorial and physical models provide a visual platform to understand the critical problems thus, they help to solve the equations or problems.

A pictorial depiction of data refers to the portrayal of the data in different representations or pictures of specific objects. This offers the impression of knowing the issue in more detail. This keeps the details transparent and usable, and allows to relate it to different criteria.

Science problems are not always composed of numbers and equations. Sometimes a question requires a higher comprehension for it. In this case, the physical model plays a crucial role. It reduces any uncertainty and gives the idea of a rational solution to the problem.

Conclusion:

Thus, pictorial and physical models are necessary thing to understand the problems very effectively.
