    What Is the Current Through a Resistor with Internal Battery Resistance?

    Yes I do thank you for your help. Funny that you got the picture off hyperphysics, I was on there trying to read about this

    Calculate the resistance per meter

    P is the resistivity and L is the length of the wire, so you are really solving for R/L

    Conservation of Energy and Centripital Motion question

    good but notice what you are solving for. How do you bring alpha into this. Hopefully you already drew a diagram, so substitute alpha and h1 in for h2.

    Mass of a Boxer: Find with k and x

    yes sup, what you said is right. That is essentially how scales work.

    What is the Speed of a Paint Bucket System Using Conservation of Energy?

    you forgot about the 12kg bucket which is also moving. so your equation should really be Ko+ Uo = Kf + Uf 0 + (12)(9.8)(2) = (1/2)(4)(v^2) +(1/2)(12)(v^2)+ (4)(9.8)(2)

    Conservation of Energy and Centripital Motion question

    I will help you to start, use energy conservation from the top of the snowball to the point (with angle alpha) where she loses contact. Try that and if you have any more questions, just ask

    Calculating the Force between Hydrogen Atoms using Potential Energy

    Just as comment on your derivative, I think it should actually be F(x)= -6C/x^7 because if you used the multiplication rule, the -6 is in the numerator

    What is the Speed of a Paint Bucket System Using Conservation of Energy?

    The equation you have is right, but you have to think about the system. K1 would be zero, because at the beginning, nothing is moving, and U1 will be the potential of the 12 kg bucket if you set the ground as reference point. Then as the 12 kg bucket falls and hits the ground, the 4kg bucket...

    How Is Force Calculated on a Proton in a Magnetic Field?

    Haha, sadly Art isn't my forte, neither is music for that matter, but thank you guys for your help

    Finding the force between 2 finite length wires

    Wow thank you for catching my error in the last part. It works out, thanks. But if the segments were close in length comparably to the distance apart, would you need to apply the second equation?

    How Is Force Calculated on a Proton in a Magnetic Field?

    [SOLVED] Force dealing with vectors Homework Statement A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.47 T acts in the positive z direction. Find the magnitude of the force exerted by the field on a proton if the proton's velocity is <3Mm/s i + 3Mm/s j>. Answer in pNHomework Equations F=QV \times...
