Work is energy, so in the case where the work accelerates a bullet, the work is the same as the change in kinetic energy. W=ΔE_k
Thus, your calculations should be correct... Are you sure all the values are correct? What is the answer supposed to be?
Homework Statement
Hello! :)
I got stuck on a problem I got for my physics class, where I am supposed to derive the differential equations for a mechanical system (x'' =, θ'' =, and φ'' =) , and then simulate how the system behaves in matlab.
Here is a picture...
