I am sure this will become a 'face-palm' moment, but can anyone point me in the direction of what electromagnetic energy wavelengths on either side of the visible spectrum, that is detectable on earth, ie what is not filtered by our atmosphere? I am specifically trying to find information on the...

Awesome. Thank you.

I'd love to do an experiment but for now just have to see if there was sufficient energy into the system to create a sufficient shear to the internal structures. I thought about just taking the KE and transferring into force as KE/d, approximating about a 2 cm distance of movement but thought I...

This is actually a problem I have been chipping away at for a bit in my spare time. We can assume the projectile was a sphere with a volume of 0.0021 m^3. I have thought about how much displacement of the target, maybe it moved a couple of centimetres after impact. I am trying to establish if...

Hello, A silly question I'm sure, if a projectile moving at 13.59 m/s with a KE = 527.47 J hits an area of 3 cm^2, what is the force transfer to that area and the resultant pressure applied expressed in Pascals? Do I divide the KE by a volume instead of area to Pa?

Howdy Everyone. Just a bit about myself. I am a Kinesiologist and a Physiotherapist. I enjoy biomechanics problems and hope to keep learning more on here.
