    Current flows through the block of metal

    so it'll be I= pi a(b^2)/c?

    Current flows through the block of metal

    Homework Statement Consider a rectangular block of metal of height A, width B, and length C, as shown in the figure below. If a potential difference V is maintained between the two A B faces of the block, a current IAB is observed to flow. Find the current that flows if the same potential...

    Conservation of Momentum homework help

    Homework Statement A 93 kg astronaut and a 1500 kg satellite are at rest relative to the space shuttle. The astronaut pushes on the satellite, giving it a speed of 0.16 m/s directly away from the shuttle. Seven-and-a-half seconds later the astronaut comes into contact with the shuttle. What...

    Finding Force Constant of a Spring

    is Fr where i am supposed to insert the frictional force? because i did and I still got the problem wrong but equation seems right how do i find the frictional force isn't it fk=ukN?

    Finding Force Constant of a Spring

    ok so potential energy is = mgy but if its going horizontal isn't y=0 so the potential energy is 0?

    Finding Force Constant of a Spring

    Homework Statement A 1.80 kg block slides on a rough, horizontal surface. The block hits a spring with a speed of 1.95 m/s and compresses it a distance of 14.0 cm before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is µk = 0.560, what is the force...
