    Engineering Finding the system output by convolution

    Since there are initial conditions stated, I would have to craft the s equation in mind, in order to find the impulse by laplace inverse; which is this: ##(s^2Y(s)-sy(0)-y'(0))+8(sY(s)-y(0))+16Y(s)=x(s)## ##(s^2Y(s)+\frac{1}{2}s-1)+8(sY(s)-1)+16Y(s)=x(s)##...

    Why gravitational potential energy is a system property?

    Spring has more potential energy when it is compressed or stretched from its initially balanced state. As external work is done, it stores energy in the form of potential energy. Here, we know energy is stored in spring but For the Earth-ball system, where the energy stored?

    I Invariance of a system under symmetry operations

    I'm trying to understand the precise reason we claim that a value being conserved means that the system in question is invariant under the corresponding symmetry transformation. Take parity for example. If the parity operator satisfies the commutation relation ##[P, H] = 0## for a given...

    A general potential energy for a multi-particle system

    For a system of two or more particles, it is customary to define potential energy functions ##V_{ij}## between pairs of particles, so that the total conservative force (not necessarily total) on any given particle is $$\mathbf{F}_i = \sum_{j\neq i} -\nabla_i V_{ij}$$as a sum over all other...

    New amplitude of a spring-mass system when a 2nd mass falls on the first

    I am confused about conservation of momentum for this question. I take the system as two objects, each having mass m. For first object (the one performing simple harmonic motion), there is net external force acting on it in horizontal direction (restoring force of spring). For second object...

    I Total energy of an isolated system

    If a closed system has kinetic and potential energy such as the total energy (the sum of the two) equals zero for all times, what does that mean? In other words, what does it physically mean that the total energy is always zero for a closed system? I think I have a small misunderstanding of the...

    The canonical ( Boltzmann) distribution law for a canonical system is described the probability of state ##v## by ##P_v = Q^{-1} e^{-\beta E_v} ## where ##Q^{-1}## is the normalization constant of ##\sum_v P_v = 1## and therefore ##Q = \sum_{v}e^{-\beta E_v}##. Chandler then derives ##...

    Find the tension in the string of this two mass system

    Mechanics Question- Massive Rope in a Pulley System

    I understand how they might have got to these answers but I'm still kind of shaky on how the mass of the rope plays a role in the tension at point B, and how to mathematically represent the tension at any point along the rope; I know the tension varies because the rope has mass. If I was to...

    Help on how to find stellar radius with an eclipsing binary system

    My best guess right now is use Newton's version of Kepler's 3rd Law to maybe find a combined mass, as I'm under the impression that the smaller star's mass would still be too large to ignore, but I'm not confident. And I wouldn't be sure as where t go from their, either. Any guidance would be...

    Simplifying a two-particle system to a one-body problem

    The first part is actually fine. You just note that since r=r1+r2 that means r1=r+r2 and r2=r1-r and you substitute that into the center of mass, R, and simplify to get r1=R+(μ/m1)r, and r2=R-(μ/m2)r But the next part is where I'm very confused. The general idea is that you want to prove ∇1 =...
