| Abstract | Enrico Fermi is remembered for his many contributions to theoretical and experimental physics, but from an educational point of view he also popularized the use of the kind of questions we now call "Fermi problems" (or "Fermi questions"). Fermi problems (FPs) are back-of-envelope problems that arose from the need to make order of magnitude calculations, and Fermi himself used them in his own research and physics classes. The procedure proposed by Fermi was to break the original problem down into simpler sub-problems, solve these by making reasonable estimates and educated guesses, and thereby reach a solution to the original question. In the literature, this way of working is known as the "Fermi (estimates) method." (As Provided). |
