    Calculating Speed of Golf Ball After Contact

    Homework Statement i hit a golf ball of mass 0.045kg with an avg. Force of 2.5x10^3 N over a short time interval of 1.0 x 10^-3 s at an angle of 30 degrees with respect to the horizontal. neglect air resistance and assume a level course. What is the speed of the ball immediately after...

    What is the average radius of the pipe within the hill?

    I used 55m because D=110m is the the whole system, so i looked at the first half. which is why i used 44.4 seconds. Is this the right to do the problem?

    What is the average radius of the pipe within the hill?

    Homework Statement An old two pipe system runs through a hill, with distances D_a=D_b=30m and the total Distance is D=110m. On each side of the hill, the pipe radius is .0200m. However, the radius of the pipe inside the hill is no longer known. To determine it, hydraulic engineers first...

    How Do You Solve Equilibrium Problems in Physics?

    Ok. I1w1=I2w2 w1=I2w2/I1 OK so I have to find the angular velocity of the bullet before the collision? How can i find the Inertia of the bullet?

    How Do You Solve Equilibrium Problems in Physics?

    I would say linear. m1v1=m2v2 v1=m2(wr)/m1 v1=4.003(10*.25)/ .003 v1*sin 60=2888.91m/s?
