Finding parallel or in-series resistors
I cannot understand why the 45 ohm resistor is parallel to the 15 ohm resistor. It's been defined that if two or more resistors are in parallel they same common connection points. I don't see these connections points. Is the junction point after the ammeter signifying that the 45 ohm and 15 ohm...- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Sign of Work (Negative or Positive)
Im confused I did 850*9.8*14.7 = 1.2x10^5 Why is it not negative since the force is opposite to the motion?- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Work Pulley Problem with constant speed
For A the 1.2 kg block is being pulled by gravity hence work is done downwards which will make work positive since it's going with the same direction as the force. 1.2 * 9.8 = 11.76 N pulled downwards Work = F*d 11.76*0.75 = 8.82 J The tension is the other force and since the thing is...- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Two dimensional motion problem (kicking a soccer ball into the goal)
I did this too fast idk if I'm wrong So for the x component use the formula d = rt / delta x = v*t 26 = vcos(theta) y component use the displacement formula 19.6 = vsin(theta) tan^-1(19.6/26) = 36.5 degrees the answer key says 20.2 degrees idk whats wrong- Ineedhelpwithphysics

'Police Car Catching Up' problem in kinematics
oh displacement is -30 from the cop to the car if i choose the car to be zero, and its 30 meters from the cop to the car if i choose the cop to be 0- Ineedhelpwithphysics

'Police Car Catching Up' problem in kinematics
Why is it 10.92 seconds and not 10 Cars displacement = 30*t +1/2(0)t^2 police displacement = 0*t + 1/2(6)(t)^2 30t = 3t^2 t = 10 seconds ???- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Why Does a Free-Falling Object Not Have Zero Final Velocity Upon Impact?
I think i get it now. 6.78 is the initial velocity at the top of the door To find the height of the ladder I would have to make 6.78 the final velocity, and the initial velocity 0 I find the time between the rock dropping from the top of the ladder to the top of the door. Then using the...- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Why Does a Free-Falling Object Not Have Zero Final Velocity Upon Impact?
When I drop a rock from the top of my ladder, I notice that it takes 0.25 seconds for the rock to fall past our 2-m tall door and hit the ground below. What was the velocity of the rock when it passed the top of the door? How tall is my ladder? You're suppose to take -6.78 m/s as the final...- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Why Does a Free-Falling Object Not Have Zero Final Velocity Upon Impact?
I am super stumped at this question, the answer key is telling me 6.78 downwards, i think I'm reading and observing the question wrong. Isn't final velocity 0 so why can't i do 0 = v0 -9.8(0.25) -2.45 = v0 But when I use the second the equation -2 (displacement of door) = v0(0.25) + 1/2...- Ineedhelpwithphysics

Rating speeds from least to greatest from a position time graph
My answer is R > P > Q = S Since R is more steeper than P the speed is greater, speed is a non-negative unit so i assume that speed of R will be greater than P Speed of P has a positive slope, also the magnitude is positive. Q and S are the same due to the fast that they both horizontal slopes...- Ineedhelpwithphysics
