Horizontal Definition and 978 Threads

From the forces equation I can only understand from it that the forces' equations are:##N=Mg## and ##T\sin \theta=m\ell \ddot{\theta}##. But I don't know how to find the Torques' equations. Any help is appreciated. N=Mg ##Tcos⁡θ+N=mg

my attempt: no effect

Hi everyone, I have created a question which I thought would have a single simple solution, but have noticed there are two possible answers. This makes me think that the question's scenario is impossible with the numbers I made up. I think we all can agree that the horizontal component to...

In the question I assumed the velocity of the circular object to be : $$\vec v_A= v cos( \phi + \omega t) \hat i + v sin(\phi + \omega t) \hat j$$ where $$\omega = \frac{v}{R}$$ Velocity of the other particle is $$\vec v_B = v \hat i$$ Now magnitude of relative velocity comes out on...

I have been taught that in order to find the angle made by a liquid in a container with the horizontal, we use the fact that the free surface is perpendicular to the net force vector acting on the fluid (including the pseudo force vector for an accelerating container), however, if say the...

Tnet = 0 = Tcord-Twall-Tmass TLsinθ-2m(3/4L)-m(1/2)L TLsinθ= -(3/2)mL-(1/2)mL T=m/sinθ T= (1.52)/sin(39.7) = 2.38N

The only way I get this is to make a the vertical acceleration at the bottom corner and g the horizontal acceleration there. This is from Halliday & Resnick's Physics. I've been unable to find anything there or in REA's Physics Problem Solver. Thanks for any hints submitted.

I'm able to get the force of the top spring (6.75N upwards) by setting the sum of all forces equal to 0 as everything is stationary. Where I'm stuck is starting the second part of the problem. I initially tried setting the sum of torques equal to 0 using the top spring as a lever arm but unless...

Neglect any forces within string, except tension.

Summary:: I'd like to check my understanding of standard problems where a billiard ball resting on a plane is hit horizontally at some height above its center So the situation is that a ball of mass ##m## and radius ##r## is at rest on a horizontal surface. There is friction between the ball...

In an I-beam, the shear flow is usually shown drawn as on the left, not as drawn on the right. I do not understand why. I do understand: The total horizontal shear force must be zero, consistent with statics.This is satisfied in both images. The vertical direction matches the direction of the...

can someone tell me what is the meaning of the horizontal line in the sentence ? thanks .

hey i don't understand why my answers are incorrect, here is my solution i would like if someone can help me understand what I am doing worng and how i should solve this problem

I've never actually done this, so I was wondering if someone could show me how this is done. One way I tried was by simply using ##cos^{-1}## in order to cancel the cosine, but that gave me a different value, so I assume this is not how you are supposed to do this. --> I know I am supposed to...

I am curious how the height of the gnomon in a horizontal sundial is dependent on your location. Why does it need to be different high depending on where you are? Does it have to do with how high the sun is in the sky depending on the latitude you are on?

I came across this notation when reading the wiki article on Venturi effect, which baffled me. Can someone please tell me its meaning?

It says when the ball is shot the can is released and they both hit each other at the same height ie they travel same distance down. But that is only possible when the ball starts it’s downward journey the same time as the can starts it’s own. Shooting a ball upward direction will give it some...

I have already solved this problem, just would like to double check something with you conceptually. I've got a negative result for the tension in the lower cord. Intuitively I think it is right, because the lower cord does not support the ball in its opposing the force of gravity. It actually...

I would like to conduct an experiment asking the question "how does the angle at which a projectile is launched vary with respect to the horizontal range it covers?" Ultimately, I'd like to prove that the horizontal range is directly proportional to sin(2(theta)). This will be done with the aid...

To be honest I am a bit clueless first with how to interrupt this question I think the bead is going around a wall type thing where there is friction both in the up and X direction. Some hint to get some ideas running would be great

Is it possible for the stone to move in horizontal circular motion just like in the picture? I try to draw the free body diagram of the stone and there are two forces acting on the stone, its weight (directed downwards) and the tension of the string (directed to the left). The tension will...

r = 2.5 l=10 cm angle = 0 (maximum connecting rode elongation) w = 0.5 (30 rpm) n=10/2.5 = 4 so the acceleration is 1.5×0.5×0.5(1 + 1/4 ) = 0.4 m/s friction force = 10*9.81*0.3 = 29.4 Newton. Crank force is the mass of the object into acceleration. So crank force = 10 × 0.4 = 4 Newton...

The answer says t = Vb - Va/g. Shouldn't it be Va + V(from highest point to point b)/g ?

Given f(x) = [sqrt{2x^2 - x + 10}]/(2x - 3), find the horizontal asymptote. Top degree does not = bottom degree. Top degree is not less than bottom degree. If top degree > bottom degree, the horizontal asymptote DNE. The problem for me is that 2x^2 lies within the radical. I can rewrite...

Do I need to use formula to answer this question? Can't I just divided the horizontal distance in the picture by 2. so the horizontal separation of the thread is 54.8 / 2 = 27.4 mm? Thanks

Say that I have a continouos beam resting on top of column spanning across 3 column. The applied load is UDL on the beam, here's how the BMD look like. My question is whether the connection between the beam and column need to sustain the moment ? Which point need to sustain the moment ? All 3...

This is more of a conceptual question. To find the horizontal velocity as a function of time for the above wave function, you take its partial t derivative and insert x=4. In other words the function would be -2.4sin(1-12t). Im wondering why you take the partial t derivative and not to partial...

g=9.81 m2g=m1a, a=(m2/m1)g=0.8g F=0.8g x (M+m1+m2)= 0.8g x (21+5+4)= 0.8g x 30= 235.44 N. The answer key however indicate that the answer is 392N. This made me think that the tilt of m2 has something to do with it, but I can't see how much it will make F larger than the above answer.

For ##x=-1## to be an *horizontal* inflection point, the first derivative ##y'## in ##-1## must be zero; and this gives the first condition: ##a=\frac{2}{3}b##. Now, I believe I should "use" the second derivative to obtain the second condition to solve the two-variables-system, but how? Since...

Hello, I need advice which lens should I use for correction of horizontal astigmatism in anamorphics lens which contains two prisms. Focal length which I need to be focused is about 3 meters. I am using this prisms pair with projector. When I display grid horizontal lines are not focused...

Hey Everyone, my physics teacher has assigned us a task which involves predicting the range of a ball falling down an inclined plane into a free-fall, the equation for the final velocity of the ball down the ramp, accounting for rotational velocity has been provided, this is the initial velocity...

Hello everyone, I'm looking to estimate the variation of degassing on a horizontal tank of VC (vinyl chloride) due to solar radiation. The feed flow is continuous but the outlet is batch flow. So there is a lot of variation of liquid level in the tank (constant pressure). To avoid a lot of...

I'll write my procedure: $$\lim_{x\to\infty}[\frac{(a-2)x^3+x^2}{ax^2+6x+1}]\rightarrow\frac{x(a-2)}{a}\in \mathbb{R}$$ And now, assumed that everything's correct, how do I assign ##a## a value for having that limit finite and ##\in \mathbb{R}##, and so an horizontal asymptote?

I've been able to find the tangent line with most equations, but I don't have any idea how to do it with a range of values instead of being given a singular value.

This 1500 m long , 2m diameter , 1m below flooded road surface from point at right side to sump at left side is horizontal. My understanding for sufficient drainage is a minimum fall, 1:100 required. Then with a gradient of .01 a pipe of this length should have a 15m fall. There is grating...

How will the MA of a fixed pulley change if I apply the effort horizontally? Intuitively, I feel horizontal effort should be lesser effort than vertical effort.

This is how I think the set up of the lab should look like. I've decided the height to be y=1,5m. The length x is assumed to be 0.32m. where Voy =0m/s the time it takes for the marble to drop 1,5m is 0,55s the inital velocity of the marble is around 0,47m/s I Think I have the...

I am conducting tensile test on a bigger scale. When the material breaks i have the maximum kilograms that can be a applied to the material. I pull horizontal in a rubber patches glued to a rubber sheet and i want to find the maximum tensile strength in the glue. How do i convert my 2000 kg pull...

(not a homework question - I left education over 45 years ago) Hi, this just out of interest as I have been googleing this and can't find the answer I know the equation for tension force, for example a weight on a string, block on a ramp, etc. But is there something similar for a horizontal...

I am looking for a rotation devise like that one in this video below (from 00:40 seconds). Does anyone know where to get one, or have any idea about how to create a nice and stable rotation setup for experiments without too much hassle and DIY? A bike wheel won't do, a disk is better, because I...

In the situation described in the problem, the mass is moving on a horizontal circular path with constant velocity. Wouldn’t this make L and U both constant? Then the Lagrange equation would give 0 = 0, which isn’t what I’m looking for. Any help would be appreciated.

This is a representation of a square, and a triangle that creates an angle between that square. In this case, the horizontal and vertical components to the Angle of View are the same. Now, change this square into a rectangle, and the relationship to the horizontal and vertical components are...

If a rod is on a table (horizontally) and rotating about an axis that passes through one of its ends and vertical to the table, what would be the tension on the opposite end of the rod (the end opposite to the axis) . In this post (Check this post out from Socratic QnA), the limits take while...

I don't understand what horizontal shift means. I believe that means calculate the horizontal component of a_cx. But when I do that a_{cx} is in terms only of the angle and the radius of the earth. But what I need is to include the 50 m vertical distance, so I think that maybe we need to use...

All I know is that it involves Newton's 2nd law F=ma. Im wondering if I use average acceleration (vf-vi)/time I'm not sure where else to go from here.

Ok this is what I posted on MeWe in MathQuiz I'm pretty sure this can be solved just by a quick look at the powers But probably I could of explained it better I know the book says to take the Limit...
