Velocity Definition and 1000 Threads

So first of all, I will have to find the centre of mass. ##X_{cm} = \frac{1}{M}\int x dm## likewise for Y. ##M## =150kg From the above-given points, I can find the equation of a line to be ## y =-\frac{3}{4}x +3## . Area density = ##150kg/(0.5*4*3) = 25kg/m^2## ##X_{cm} = \frac{1}{M}\int x dm...

From another recent thread I learned that you see a Coriolis force if an object in a rotating reference frame moves along a tangent at some velocity v. (I was already familiar with the case where the velocity is radial). I still find it a little counter-intuitive that the force has the same...

I seem to be able to do this problem (at least from what I think, but my answer is still wrong according to the answer key, please do help check.) Since: Gain in GPE = Loss in translational KE + loss in rotational KE ##\left(m\cdot g\cdot...

I'm not sure how to proceed with this, but here are my findings/hypothesis: First we find the electric field contributed by the plate with ##E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi r\epsilon_{0}}## where r=2? After finding out the electric field, is it safe to assume I can find the acceleration of the point...

The velocity of the plane relative to the ground is 269.6 km/h [N 5.6 E]. Shouldn't it be the velocity of the ground relative to the plane is - 269.6 km/h [N 5.6 E]

Okay, I am not even sure how to startr with this question. But here's my theory: First I will need to the electric field produced by the ring using the formula: ##E = k\frac{\lambda a}{(x^2+a^2)^{3/2}}## After finding out electric field produced by ring, am I supposed to find out the...

This is a homework question from my friend, I found the time but a tough differential equation occurred when I was trying to find accelaration, is there a simple solution for this?

Well, ##r(t)## in ##A## is just a vector ##(0;y)## because is tangent to the trajectory. Then, from the perspective of ##B## the particle moves in an uniform circular motion. Is this right? The velocity from ##B## must be ##\omega##, right? And what about acceleration?

So, I understand that there are 2 objects, so is the equation we are supposed to use is the elastic collision equation, right? I just need help getting started, thank you.

So I integrated the work done on the object by both planets. Work1 is until x, and Work2 is from x to d. Where x is the point where both gravitational forces are equal. ##W_1=\int_0^x \frac{GMm}{r^2}dr - \int_0^x \frac{GMm}{(3R+D-r)^2}dr ## ##W_2=\int_x^D \frac{GMm}{(3R+D-r)^2}dr - \int_x^D...

Please could I ask for help with the following question: Part (a) is no problem. Acceleration is the gradient of the graph in regions OA and AB which gives 3 and 0.5 Part (b), I believe, requires me to calculate the greatest and least value of the gradient of the curve in region BC Part...

Summary: Gradient = Acceleration(?) Area = Time (?) Good evening, I have a problem that presents itself in a distance (y) velocity (x) graph. I've never come across this, and in my Physics textbook, the section dedicated to graphs does not have it. My question is, what does the area of the...

Well, what I've done so far is calculating the magnitude of velocity and acceleration replacing ##t=2## in ##\theta (t)## and ##r(t)## so I could get the expressions for ##\dot r##, ##\dot \theta##, ##\ddot r## and ##\ddot \theta##. But that's not my problem... my problem is related to the...

Well, I drew the polar and standard axis centered in the particle and wrote which angles were equal to 60° so I could decompose the velocity. The problem says "moves towards it (the radar) with velocity v=5 m/s, so that's one of the components. But I realized that the velocity "cuts" the angle...

Hi, You could skip these details and find the main question at the bottom. I added the details for the sake completeness and context. Thanks. Boltzmann distribution of molecular speeds provides an insight into the different speeds the molecules of a gas are moving around with. It provides you...

Hello! I am a bit confused about the image reconstruction for velocity map imaging. As far as I understand, at the interaction point, ions are produced in a Newton sphere which gets projected on a 2D screen (such that all the particles with the save velocity get mapped on the same point). What...

Crystal acts as a diffraction grating.Although I don't know what that means.

ok not finding this easy but the red is mine drawn over the given book graph also want to convert the whole thing to tikx graph

Suppose we are driving on moon (I mean there is not air resistance) at a constant velocity. Suddenly the car goes on an icy land (the friction is zero). What happens? In other words, if we drive at constant velocity and there isn't air resistance, Is there any friction force between tires and...

Hi all, Not sure on how to start this question in the first place, but from what I gathered from the data given I managed to derive this from the question: ##\theta = 53.13\deg## Let inside truck be t, final position be f, and ground be g ##D_{ft} = L## ##D_{fg} = xL## Also, for velocity...

There have been some other threads on similar problems but none address one specific point I'm confused about. The change in GPE of a body is the negative of the work done on that body by a gravitational field between two points; by this logic, since the same (but opposite) gravitational forces...

I have a disc. The center of the disc is its center of mass and the motion of the disc is purely rotational (no translation). What is the angular velocity in the center of the rotating disc?

I tried getting the velocity of a which by using constraint came out to be 3 and by using the eqn for vcom i got the ans as 3.5 i just want to confirm is this the correct answer

Hi everyone. Do correct me if I am thinking wrongly. So to find angular velocity, won't I just have to integrate angular acc = 2t, which means angular velocity = t^2? Hence, won't the answer be 3^2=9? The answer seems to be 5.43 :/ Thanks

I have a hard time understanding what this problem even means. So I can't even begin with it.

cp2.63. The acceleration of a particle is given by $$a(t)=-2.00 \, m/s^2 +3.00 \, m/s^3.$$ a. find the initial velocity $v_0$ such that the particle will have the same x-coordinate at $t=4.00\, s$ as it had at $t=0$. b. What will be the velocity at $t=4.00 s$ ok sorry but I don't even know...

$\tiny{207 \quad DOY}$ A particle moves along the x-axis. The velocity of the particle at time t is $6t - t^2$. What is the total distance traveled by the particle from time $t = 0$ to $t = 3$ ? $(A)\,3 \quad (B)\,6 \quad (C)\,9 \quad (D)\,18\quad (E) \, 27$ ok think this is correct...

1). I calculated maximum safe velocity using the equation - V(max)=√200x10x0.2 =20m/s So the speed at which car is traveling is greater than the safe speed.. So the car should skid. So why 4th option is not correct ?

Is E the correct answer because I think angular velocity is independent of mass distribution of the object? Thanks

Hi, please could I ask for help with the following question: A smooth hollow circular cone of semi-angle α, is fixed with its axis vertical and its vertex A downwards. A particle P, of mass m, moving with constant speed V, decribes a horizontal circle on the inner surface of the cone in a plane...

The statement "at the initial moment of time v ⊥ u and the points are separated by a distance l " gives us a picture like the one which I have added in attachment. As the time passes velocity vector v would gradually change from fully vertical to fully horizontal in order to meet point B. Now...

Hi, I understand and I'm sorry that there are going to be many loopholes in what I'm trying to put together and that too without any mathematical formulation but I don't even know where and what to start with. Suppose we have a finite length insulated hollow cylinder filled with with air at 1...

I am working on derivation of Lorentz force. (I know that Lorentz force is in some sense definition of fields, but still there is nontrivial dependence on velocity). I want to derive that the force is linear in components of velocity, so for example $$F_x=q(E+Av_x + Bv_y + Cv_z ),$$where ##A...

240/8=30.

a) what is its speed after falling to 2.00s motion formula $v=u+at$ so $v = 6.00 \dfrac{m}{s} + 9.81 \dfrac{m}{s^{\cancel{2}}}{2.00 \cancel{s}} = 27.6 \dfrac{m}{s}$ b) How far does it fall in 2.00s distance formula $d= ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2$ so...

OK I just had time to post and hopefully ok but still typos maybe the graph was done in Deimos wanted to try tikx but not sure about the polynomial trying to as many physics homework before classes start on Aug 26 Mahalo

Problem Statement: How to calculate minumum angular velocity of a mass on a spinning plate Relevant Equations: f=mrw^2 Hi, here's the question: a) A rough horizontal plate rotates with a constant angular velocity of w about a fixed vertical axis. A particle of mass m lies on the plate at a...

Problem Statement: The uniform 4-kg cylinder A, of radius r = 150 mm, has an angular velocity w = 50 rad/s when it is brought into contact with an identical cylinder B which is at rest. The coefficient of kinetic friction at the contact point D is uk. After a period of slipping, the cylinders...

Any ideas?

The answers were 1) 150 km/h 2) 200 km/h 3 )500 km/h 4) 700 km/h 5) 800 km/h (Chosen Solution) I know that values 700km/h ,100km/h ,-100km/h are possible scenarios but in what ways are 150km/h ,200km/h and 500km/h possible ?

referring to the image in fig 1 there is a rail carriage subject to an unknown velocity vector Vu (velocity unknown). Vu has a constant velocity Vu in the direction as shown. In the ceiling of the carriage is a light shown in blue and a columnator on the floor. The rail carriage is sitting on...

Pretending the siren is at rest in air: Wavelength = velocity/frequence --> (343 m/s) / 10,000 Hz = .0343m. I don't believe this is the correct way to go about solving the problem, since the vehicle is moving at the start and the siren is not at rest.

Summary: I am looking to determine the velocity of a the gust of air normal to a falling object. Say if you to be standing next to an open frame building with a flat roof then take away all the columns and let the roof free fall. What kind of wind velocity would you experience. I am looking to...

Figure given in question-: I first found out the time when force will be equal ro friction.After force becomes equal to friction there will be no acceleartion further,so velocity after that time will be same.I calculated the velocity by getting a relation of it with time.I got the velocity as...

Hubble's Law and Star Velocity By using Hubble's law and the principle of velocity superposition of relativity, we can deduce when the distance of star from the observation point is (photometric distance)r, its velocity V can be expressed as: V = Csin (Hr/C) Therefore, the...

In an accelerator when you're pushing/pulling a charged particle with a field that travels at the speed of light why should we expect to the particle to exceed the speed of light.

so I have this problem from olympiad the maximum value of the satellite velocity component parallel to the high axis of the ellipse(a) and the answer should be vmax=a/b*sqrt(G*M/a). How to prove this?

So here is what is going on in my mind: We have a turn that is 400m away from the center of the turn. The faster the car goes, the harder it is for it to maintain its radius. We have a component of the normal force that points towards the center, and static friction which does the same. I...
