well ok. that helped i think
so if we do the
(unknown mass)(9.8)=net force
(sum of two known masses)+x=mass total
a=f/m
so... 9.8x/(sum of two known masses+x)=a
then solve for x from the solved acceleration which we wouldve used
x=.5at^2
is that right?
AP PHYSICS MIDTERM-EMERGENCY!.please help
Homework Statement
We are given an Atwoods machine with two known masses on either side. On one of the masses two objects of unknown mass are added. We have to perform measurements to determine the resulting acceleration. Then from the accelerations...
