Hi
I've tried solving this question but it seems that I flipped the direction of the impulse, what did I interpret wrong? the question didn't give any clue on their direction before so I couldn't infer the direction of the impulse. It also just gave me the magnitude without the direction. I...
Hi,
I have no idea what formula to use while given these values, basically, it fits no formula. Any thing could help?
Many thanks in advance
Correct answer is 65
The answer here is A
What i did is getting the area as follows,
2×4×1/2 +3×-6×1/2 +4×-6 = -29
and then use this
Δω=ωf-ωi
-29=ωf-5
ωf=24
but there is no such choice.
i attempted this problem by using conservation of energy,
mgh=1/2kx^2
mgD=1/2kD^2
2mg=kD
k=2mg/D
why is it wrong ? btw the correct answer used mg = kx which is mg/D
