We are asked to find the tension in the rope. First from the first, we can assume that tensions in both ropes are equal, so we can treat them as a single rope since they are wound symmetrically. That “rope” will act tangentially to both cylinders so it exerts torque, the torque equations are...

How far you recommend krotov to high schoolers? like i genuinely want to improve my problem solving skills as i have given enough time in concepts and derivation stuffs...even of non routine courses but yeah need to sacrifice a few things for irodov! so?

Hello everbody, I found the following resolution: We can consider the winding of the wire as a thin disc. Like this, For a given instant t, we will have M (t) mass of the disc and R (t) radius of the disc. Analyzing linear dynamics: $$M(t)gsen\theta - T = M(t).a $$ Analyzing the...

. First thing that I notice is that the other part of string (to which body 2 is connected) is fixed. Therefore, I concluded that the body 2 is stationary with respect to the pulley 2 (let's agree that pulley to which body 1 is connected is pulley 1 and in same way pulley 2 is defined)...

My struggle here comes from finding the bending moment ##N(x)##. My working is as follows. We want to find the bending moment on an element a distance ##x## away from the axis of rotation. To do so, let us consider the bending moment due to the force on an element ##\xi>x## away from the axis...

The thing is, I've already looked up at the solution online at it's t= 2a/3v. But I've approached it a different way and I can't really tell what I'm doing wrong, my solutions gives out t= (a/√3v )* (π/3),I don't know what's wrong with it. Here's my approach: The points will meet at the...
