AI Thread Summary
Calculating the impact force of a pendulum in g's is complex due to the variable deformation of the material during collision. The impact force is influenced by the energy absorbed by the sample, which is typically measured in terms of fracture energy. Standard methods like the Charpy impact test can provide insights into these measurements. There is no straightforward formula for calculating g forces in this context. Understanding the material's response to impact is crucial for accurate assessments.

I need to run an experiment using a swinging steel ball pendulum to impact diffrent materials to determine impact integrity in g's.
What is the formula for this? In g (x times gravity)

Thread 'Is 'Velocity of Transport' a Recognized Term in English Mechanics Literature?'
Here are two fragments from Banach's monograph in Mechanics I have never seen the term <<velocity of transport>> in English texts. Actually I have never seen this term being named somehow in English. This term has a name in Russian books. I looked through the original Banach's text in Polish and there is a Polish name for this term. It is a little bit surprising that the Polish name differs from the Russian one and also differs from this English translation. My question is: Is there...
This has been discussed many times on PF, and will likely come up again, so the video might come handy.

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
