The paper is devoted to problems that arise in practical classes when solving physics tasks for students of engineering majors at the university. Examples of classification of tasks by types are given, taking into account certain criteria. Factors that contribute to the development of students' skills in solving physics tasks are considered. Solutions to the above-mentioned taskss are briefly discussed. A diagram is proposed that shows the main stages of solving a quantitative physics task, as well as feedbacks that seem essential in the course of the solution.
