How Can I Solve This Dynamics Problem Involving Friction and Inclined Planes?
hey guys, I'm in the middle for revising for a dynamics paper in January. I'm in the middle of a 1st year BSc Physics degree. Looking through some past papers, there are questions that i can do, and there are questions that i am unable to do. These are usually question where you have to derive...- JakePearson

Undergrad Are Stages 2-3 and 1-4 in the OTTO Cycle Adiabatic?
hey guys, just wanted to know, in the graph of the OTTO cycle in the link http://www.qrg.northwestern.edu/ther...Pv-diagram.gif are stage (2-3) and (1-4) adiabatic or not, if so why are they the reason i ask is that i have a graph showing that these stages are adiabatic, however...- JakePearson

Maxima question needs checking
question a rectangular plot of land requires fencing on all 4 sides. two opposite sides will use heavy duty fencing at £6/metre, whilst the other tow sides will use standard fencing at £3/metre. if the farmer buying the fencing has £5000 to spend, what is the maximum area he can enclose...- JakePearson

Differentiating x(t): Solutions & Examples
1) Differentiate x(t) = pi / t2 pi x(t) = t-2 = pi (t-2) = -2pi t-3 2) Differentiate x(t) = 1 / (At3 + B) = (At3 + B)-2 x (2At2) = (-2At2) / (At3 + B) 3) Differentiate x(t) = [A sqrt(t+B)]4 = [A (t+B)1/2]4 = A4(t + B)2 = 2A4(t + B) 4) The nebraska board of grain are...- JakePearson

Trig identity question need checking
1. cos(2x+y) = cos(a+b) = sinasinb + cosacosb = (2x+y) = sin2xsiny + cos2xcosy = sin2x = 2sinxcosx and cos2x = cos2x-sin2x = cos(2x+y) = (cos2x-sin2x)cosy - (2sinxcosx and cos2x)siny (is this correct) 2. evaluate the following exactly (use \sqrt{} in your answer where necessary) cos...- JakePearson

Logarithms questions need checking
1. ln (x2 / y2) = log (A / B) = logA-logB = logx2-logy2 = 2logx - 2logy (is this correct) 2. can this expression be split into separate log functions and numbers, is this question the answer log(2x + 3y) = log(2x + 3y) (is this correct)- JakePearson

Are my dimensional analysis question correct
are these dimensional analysis questions correct A = area V = volume v = speed p = density 1. VA / v = L3 L2 L-1 T-1 = L4T-1 2. V2/3 A = (LT-1)2/3 L2 = L2/3 T-2/3 x L2 = L10/3T-2/3 3. 3A3 + 2V2 = A3 = L6 V2 = (L/T)2 = L2T-2 = L4T-2 are these correct- JakePearson

Is these algebraic expression correct
1.(x - 3)2 = 4 x2 - 6x + 5 = 0 (x - 1)(x - 5) = 0 x = -1, -5 (is this correct) 2. 2x + 4 / x +1 = x - 8 / 2x - 1 (2x + 4)(2x - 1) = (x - 8)(x + 1 4x2 - 2x + 8x - 4 = x2 - 7x -8 4x2 - 6x - 4 = x2 - 7x - 8 (where do i go from here) 3. (x / 3) - (y / 2) = -1 (y / 2) = -4 - 3x 6x + y...- JakePearson

How Do You Calculate the Mass of Atom Type B?
a gas contains 2 kinds of atoms 4x105atoms of type A and 8x105 atoms of type B. it is known that the mass of type A atoms is 5x10-26kg and the mass of the gas is 2.8x10-20kg. what is the mass of type B atom? answer; 2.8x10-20kg - 5x10-26kg = 2.8x10-20kg - 0.00005x10-20 = 2.799995x10-20kg...- JakePearson
