The discussion revolves around calculating dynamic mass and forces for an object in motion, specifically a mass at the end of a string swung along an arc. Participants are exploring the relevant equations and properties needed for this scenario.
The discussion is ongoing, with some participants providing insights into the factors that may influence the calculations. There is no explicit consensus yet, but guidance on considering tangential speed and angles has been offered.
One participant expresses uncertainty about the term "dynamic mass," indicating a potential misunderstanding or differing interpretations of the concept. This may affect the direction of the discussion.
Try f=ma.Padj01 said:I need to know how to calculate dynamic mass and forces. Example is a mass at the end of a string that is swung along an arc (not perpendicular or parallel to the floor). What equations or properties do I need to calculate dynamic mass and force of the object in motion? Thank you for your help.
