Need Help with Bonus Physics Project on Yo-Yo

[Mr. Snookums]

So I have a project due Monday on the yo-yo. It is a bonus project.

I just need to know what the linear momentum equation is for accelerating objects. And does anyone know of a *simplified* version of the angular momentum equation, like something out of Physics 12?

Any help is appreciated

Just apply Newton's second law both in normal (F=ma) and angular form (I*alpha=tau), where I is inertia of rotation, tau is torque and alpha is the tangential angular acceleration.

Sure, I can definitely help with your bonus physics project on the yo-yo. The linear momentum equation for accelerating objects is p = mv, where p is the momentum, m is the mass, and v is the velocity. This equation states that the momentum of an object is equal to its mass multiplied by its velocity.

As for a simplified version of the angular momentum equation, I would recommend using L = Iω, where L is the angular momentum, I is the moment of inertia, and ω is the angular velocity. This equation is commonly used in Physics 12 and is a simplified version of the full angular momentum equation, which includes the radius of rotation.

I hope this helps with your project. If you have any further questions or need clarification, please don't hesitate to ask. Good luck with your project!
