    Yeah I understand that. The question is just weird I guess. Thanks for the help.

    Exploring Work Done When Lifting a Box of Books

    So you think the question is just weird. Because I don't know why the book says no work was done either.

    Exploring Work Done When Lifting a Box of Books

    Homework Statement You slowly lift a box of books from the floor and put it on a table. Earth's gravity exerts a force, magnitude mg, downward, and you exert a force, magnitude mg, upward. the two forces have equal magnitudes and opposite directions. It appears that no work is done, but you...

    What Forces Create Equilibrium at Point P?

    Homework Statement A 32-N force acting at 25 degrees and a 36-N force acting at 75 degrees act concurrently on point p. What is the magnitude and direction of a third force that produces equilibrium at point P? The teacher said that we had to know higher math then algebra 1 for this...

    How Does a Satellite Maintain a Stationary Position Above Earth?

    Homework Statement The weather pictures you see every day on TV come from a spacecraft in a stationary position relative to the surface of Earth, 35,700 km above Earths equator. Explain how it can stay exactly in position day after day. What would happen if it were closer? Farther out...

    Solving 615-kg Racing Car Homework Part 1

    thats what i told them except for the straight line thing. So the way i found force was right. Thats how i told them to do it. I am not sure why they thought they had to find to friction. You have been the biggest help ever by the way.

    Solving 615-kg Racing Car Homework Part 1

    b) what force must the track exert of the tires to produce this acceleration. for this i used the fnet=mac fnet=615kg(9.65) fnet=5934.75 after i told the other class mates that were saying there was no acceleration at all how you do the...

    What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod?

    Yeah I remember now but yeah we used the whole diameter instead of the circumfrance.

    Understanding Circular Motion: Essential Concepts and Equations

    Homework Statement Well were making a poster about circular motion. I was wondering if you guess had any other important things i should add on there about it. Homework Equations ac=v^2/r fnet=mac The Attempt at a Solution So for the circular motion the subtopics in the book are...

    What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod?

    ok so the teacher said that we use r=0.153m so to find the centripetal acceleration. ac=v^2/r so to find velocity i do distance/time so would it be 0.153m/2010m/s. would that be how i find velocity. because i also have a circular motion equation for velocity which is v=delta r/ delta time

    What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod?

    Yeah I should probably learn how to do it.

    What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod?

    Im not sure how i got it. Now I get the 2.64*10^7 m/s^2. I must have just hit some button on accident on the calc.

    What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod?

    Thats alright I can do them with both that way i can't go wrong thank you again. But do you mind showing me how you converted them.
  14. I

    What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod?

    ok so i got ac=2010^2/0.153 ac=41312.970
