    How Do Tension and Torque Affect Equilibrium in Physics Problems?

    Sorry, I won't double post It says that the holding force for the swing is horizontal. I have the two holding forces going up on by free body diagram, the weight force going down, and the 100N force horizontal.

    How Do Tension and Torque Affect Equilibrium in Physics Problems?

    question A 160N child sits on a light swing and is pulled back and held with a horizontal force of 100N. The tension force of each of the two supporting ropes is: work: The tension force of the Ta and Tb must support the weight of the child and the horizontal force of 100N. so: Ta +...

    Do Rotational Inertia Calculations Require Integration?

    physics I rechecked it If a wheel turns with a constant rotational speed: each point on its rim moves with a constant translational velocity each point on its rim moves with a constant translational acceleration the wheel turns through equal angles in equal times the angle through which...

    Do Rotational Inertia Calculations Require Integration?

    First questionThree identical balls, with masses M, 2M, and 3M are fastened to a massless rod of length L as shown. The rotational inertia about the left end of the rod is: Thats the layout below. Would calculus be needed in this problem (intergration) because then I am in trouble. I know the...

    Calculate Time to Complete 1 Revolution from 3.0 rads/s - Help Guide

    If a wheel is turning at 3.0 rads/s, the time it takes to complete one revolution is about: 3.0 rads/s X 1 revolution/6.28 rads = .477 revolutions/s I just need to get the number of seconds to complete one revolution. Please explain how to go about this just step wise. Thank you. The...

    Rotational speed of the minute hand of a watch

    For the first problem I just want the answer in seconds, not seconds/revolutions I put 3600 seconds because it is the amount of time for the minute hand to make one full revolution around the clock
