No pun intended, but Mechanics questions are done very mechanically.

A lot of the questions are similar and you can eventually make a 'method' for the questions once you've spotted the pattern.

Show us an example of a question that is difficult for you, and explain your thought processes as you try. We might be able to help there.

if you understand the 3unit physical applications, mechanics should be do-able for most people.

Resolve forces into horizontal and vertical components and you should be fine from there. Which part of mechanics are you struggling with?
