I understand how it might make me look bad, but the class average was a 40%, and 90% of the class dropped the class before the end. But thanks for the input, much appreciated.

I'm a transfer student from a Community college. Sorry for the confusion, but I'm still an undergrad right? Anyways thanks for the input

undergrad

Earlier on i wanted to become a realtor, with almost no interest in the sciences. After i took my first biology class, it changed my whole worldview. I became extremely interested within the sciences, and chose my major too be chemical engineering. My overall GPA is currently 3.15. Recently...

Mind blown. Thank you everyone for replying!

Thank you, will i be able to understand the mathematics of it if I've completed calculus, but not linear algebra and diff. eq? Also if you can, can you send me some of the math too check out

Can someone please explain to me why time drastically slows for anyone near an extremely curves spacetime. I see it as the flow of time almost becomes slowed due to extreme curvature, what can explain this? What do physicists "see" time as? Also, I'm not entirely educated on this topic but I...

Thank you i understand now. Also, how come they only want the component rsin? Even for particles that are far away from the axis of rotation. Is it because that there is no angular momenta till it hits that point?

Homework Statement A spherical asteroid with radius r = 123 m and mass M = 2.10×1010 kg rotates about an axis at four revolutions per day. A "tug" spaceship attaches itself to a vehicle which follows the asteroid's south pole (as defined by the axis of rotation) and fires its engine, applying a...

Homework Statement A 220-kg beam 2.8 m in length slides broadside down the ice with a speed of 23 m/s . A 68-kgman at rest grabs one end as it goes past and hangs on as both he and the beam go spinning down the ice. Assume frictionless motion. (Figure 1) Homework Equations L1=L2 Iω=L The...

Nevermind haha I just got it , I made an algebra mistake. Thank you.

I end up getting .577 m/s. How do you set up the force equation for the pulley? Is it not mg=n, for the normal force (vertical components) and for the torque I get torque=(T-Ff)R----- where R is the radius of the pulley

Initially we weren't given the value, I just wanted the answer too see if I can figure out why it wasn't working. I did find Ff, and in turn N, but it doesn't make sense.

Homework Statement A cord connected at one end to a block which can slide on an inclined plane has its other end wrapped around a cylinder resting in a depression at the top of the plane as shown in (Figure 1) . Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.60 malong the plane...

Homework Statement You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle α so that it reaches a stranded skier who is a vertical distance h above the bottom of the incline. The incline is slippery, but there is some...
