Equations provided: for a spring pendulum and m replaced with L and k with g for the same pendulum, but with no weight attached.

I tried solving this by stating that the length is 0,50m (since no length of the spring is given) and turning around the equation for the spring...

Summary: Question regarding graphing a T^2 x L graph for a simple pendulum
I did a Simple Pendulum experiment in my college physics class the other day. We were asked to graph a T^2 x L graph based off our results. I plan on using the Length on the x-axis and the T^2 on the Y-axis.
This may...
So this question has something probably due to the conservation of angular momentum. I am able to find the moment of inertia about the pivot, which is :
$$\dfrac {1}{3}mL^{2}+\left( \dfrac {1}{12}ML^{2}+mL^{2}\right) =\dfrac {17}{12}ml^{2} $$
Now to find angular velocity when angle =0, how am I...
Summary: I know that in order to keep inverted pendulum balanced when it leans forward, I should accelerate the bottom of it, but what is the force which is applied to center of mass of the pendulum with balances torque due to gravity? Is it inertial force? We assume that our inverted pendulum...

1. if the thrust is perfectly in line with the centerline (and no outside forces act on the craft other than gravity) it does not matter where the source...
I think the answer will be either (b) or (d).
If the pendulum is at its amplitude when the cable breaks, then the oscillation will stop since the pendulum is also not moving at that instant.
If the pendulum is at any points except amplitude, then it will hit the ceiling since it still has...
I completed this problem in two different ways, and wonder why they give different answers.
Firstly, I calculate the moment of inertia of the system as I = 0.572 kg m^{2}, and the total torque acting on the system as 12.152 N. Thus I can apply the rotational analogue of NII to write...
I was solving problems about the period of a pendulum inside an elevator. They're all the same. If the elevator accelerates upwards you have that the period is shorter and it's longer if the direction is downwards.
But I tried to solve something more difficult and I thought about a pendulum...
If the pendulum on the North pole is released to start it via burning the separation string, (to avoid adding an additional tangental force), wouldn't the pendulum at the time of release, already have a tangential velocity? does that effect the outcome of the experiment ? since the plane of...

1) I do not quite understand how the phrase remain accurate to 1 second in 24 hours? , means ΔP = 1 second,
2) I also don't understand how pendulum period P should be 24 hours
What is the reasoning for both?
The solution is as such
P = 2π √(L/g) P' = 2π √((L+L α δT)/g)
ΔP = P'- P = 2π...
The kinetic energy of the pendulum ##K=\frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v^2## will turn into heat (entirely).
So both the air and the block of iron will change their temperature.
To find ##n## (moles of the gas) I can use the ideal gas law:
##n=\frac{pV}{RT}=0.9 mol##
Do I have the following equation...
For part a I used conservation of energy.
-m*g*cos(θ)*L+1/2*m*0^2=-m*g*L +1/2*m*v^2 => v = sqrt(2*g*L(1-cos(θ )).
b) For b I was think that T = mg in the equilibrium point but that doesn't invole θ in the answer. So that's why I tought that T*cos(θ ) = mg. So that the tension is mg/cos(θ). But...
Well, using the above equation it should be easy... but I can't solve it :headbang::headbang:
$$ L = \frac 1 2 m (\dot l^2 + l^2 \dot \theta ^ 2) - mgl(1- \cos\theta)$$
then I guess
$$\int_{t_1}^{t_2} \frac {\partial L}{\partial t} dt = L(t_2) - L(t_1)$$
*Note*: since the variation ##\frac...
Hi,
I have a question regarding a pendulum and it's motion/momentum given the axis it moves around.

Summary: When I tried to find the angular frequency of a rod pendulum, I attempted to find its angular acceleration first, however, I realized that the results are different by using different approaches. i.e. (1) Newton's second law for a system of particles (2) Newton's second law for...
Classical problems for hookes law generally give either mass or spring constant.

I imagine y - axis is parallel to direction of A and x - axis is parallel to direction of E. There are two forces acting on the pendulum: tension in direction of A and weight in direction of D.
I break the weight into 2 components: W sin θ in opposite direction to tension and W cos θ in...
I'm generating poincare sections of a double pendulum, and they mostly look okay, but some of them have weird discontinuities that seem wrong.
The condition for these sections is the standard ##\theta_1 = 0## and ##\dot{\theta}_1 > 0##. Looking at one of the maps, we see that most of the...
I feel like this is a dumb question, but here goes: I'm trying to model a pendulum with damping. The pendulum is connected to a rubber band (unstretched when the pendulum is vertical) on the right side, and the rubber band is fixed at the other end. How would I go about modeling a rubber band...
Hi, so I was able to solve this problem by just equating the forces (Tension, mg, and EQ).
But I thought I could also solve this problem with Conservation of Energy.
However, I calculated it several times, and I never get the right answer this way.
Doesn't the Electric Field do the work to put...
Hi all,
I'm a bit embarrassed but I'm extremely rusty with a lot of engineering principles. I've mainly been working in automation and controls within a manufacturing setting and have not done anything like this in ages. Anyways, I have a problem I need to solve and I need to determine the...
I understand how to reach
$$\int_0^\phi \frac{d\theta}{\sqrt{1-k^{2}sin^{2}\theta}}=\sqrt \frac g l t$$
from physics but from there I don't get how to turn that into this new (for me) sn(u) form.
At the bottom of the circle, the tension force is greater than the weight force as there must be a net force acting towards the centre to provide the centripetal force causing the centripetal acceleration and thus the circular motion. In the equation above (T = mv^2/r + mg) I only have the mass...
First I worked out the dispersion relations, which is pretty easy:
##M \ddot x_j = K x_{j-1} + K x_{j+1} - 2K x_j -mg \frac {x_j} {l} ## (All t-derivatives)
We know ##x_j## will be in the form ##Ae^{ijka}e^{-i\omega t}##
so the above becomes:
## -\omega^2M = K (e^{-ika}+e^{ika}-2)-\frac {g}...
First, I decided to solve for the coefficient in front of the cosine simple harmonic function for velocity. I know there is max velocity of 30cm/s at time = 0 , so I plug it into velocity function.
xmax * w = A
v(t) = Acos(wt)
0.3 = Acos(w*0)
A = 0.3
Then I have my velocity function...
I think my confusion on this is where the best origin for polar coordinates is. I've tried the center of the circle, and note the triangle made from the r coordinate reaching out to ##m, a,## and ##l+a\theta##. Then
$$r=\sqrt{a^2+(l+a\theta)^2}$$
$$\dot r = \frac {a(l+a\theta)}...
Solving using Linear Momentum:
M vb2/2 = M g 2L
vb = 2√(g L)
m v = m v/2 + M (2√(g L) )
v = 4 M √(g L) / m
Note: I see from the answers - that this is correct.
--------------
Next, I tried to solve it via Energy conservation point of view.
M vb2/2 = M g 2L
vb = 2√(g L)
m v2/2 = m v2/8 + k...
How do I start this? I plugged the differential equation at wolfram alpha and it semmed too complicated for such an exercise. I've also looked at a sample of an answer on cheeg where the initial approach is to rewrite the equation as ##\frac{d}{dt} (\frac{\dot\theta^2}{2}-cos(\theta)) = 0##

Since gravity is acting downward, I found the gravity component parallel to the plane, which was g/sin60.
I substituted g/sin60 for g into that equation and got D, but the answer should be C.
Here is a picture of the problem.
I have chosen the origin to lie in the middle of the circle around which the mass moves. I have also chosen the z axis to pass through the origin and through the vertex of the right circular cone. The x-axis and y-axis are so that one when curls his or her...
