Understanding the Molar Heat Capacity of an Ideal Gas
We know that for an ideal gas the differential of the internal energy function is: dU = n Cv dT But is Cv the molar heat capacity or not?- House

Accelerating motion with a pulley
Update: Problem solved. Thanks a lot for your time, much appreciated. -
Accelerating motion with a pulley
So, according to the FBDs we have a force for each object, but again I can't decide if the tension is the same as the weight or the accelerations are the same. I'm completely stuck here. -
Accelerating motion with a pulley
Okay, so a professor of mine told me that the rope carries the same force from B to A. But same force means different acceleretion if the masses are different. If this is true how can different parts of the rope have different acceleretions if the rope is inextensible? -
Accelerating motion with a pulley
Absolutely, I just forgot to mention them. -
Accelerating motion with a pulley
Let's suppose we have a body A with mass M that can move on a horizontal frictionless ground. Now we connect that with another body B, mass m, with the help of a rope. The body B can move vertically and the rope is curved with a pulley. Now we set the body B free to move. What's the relationship... -
Fake forces on rotating frames of reference.
Update: The math says that the rotating observer measures a force given by: F = mω×(ω×r) which is towards the center of the circular motion. Is that it? -
Fake forces on rotating frames of reference.
Suppose we have a rotating frictionless disk and there is a rotating observer on the center of it. Furthermore, suppose a very small ball on the disk's edge. Now we clearly know that the ball is not moving but the rotating observer sees the ball following a circular path with an angular velocity...
