Hello, I am an Engineering Physics major in Cornell University. At C.U, the E.P students pick the classes that they want to focus on more, such as classes focused on MechE, ChemE, etc. Many people usually do one extra year for their masters in Applied and Engineering Physics degree, physics...

I am currently attending Cornell University as a freshman under the Engineering Physics major. According to the 2009 E.P graduates, around 60% got a job while the other appx 40% are going into their graduates studies under Applied and Engineering Physics, MechE, Physics, etc. Of course the name...

wow shoot me in the head, i am retarded. so 20N/10kg=2m/s^2, where net force for the whole system is 60n. Then at kinetic friction has to total 30N, therefore the required force is 90N. And there's the answer. Thanks for the heads-up haha. I seriously got to learn how to read.

Homework Statement What is the largest force F that can be applied to the large block such that the small block doesn't slide off. There are two blocks of M1=10kg, M2=20kg. M1 is on top of M2, M2 is on top of the table. the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the two...

As haughty as it sounds, grades are not my problem. Rather, the problem is that I don't exactly know which career direction that EP and/or ME would lead me to.

I am currently a senior in high school who will be attending Cornell U this fall. I have applied to Cornell intending to graduate on Engineering Physics. However, through some research, I have found that not many people focus much on Mechanical Engineering while majoring in EP and found more...

would there be any relation with Physics Engineering and Mechanical Engineering then? for ex. can I major in Physics Engineering and prepare for Masters in Mechanical Engineering?

I am currently a Junior searching for the right major that I want to get in college. Of all majors, Engineering Physics is very difficult for me to understand. I do not know what exactly it is, nor do I know which profession it leads me to. Could anyone tell me these vexing answers that I...

I understand very little of aerodynamics. Currently, my high school robotics team is designing a F1 model. Concerning aerodynamics, how do you use the Bernoulli's Equation regarding the design of the model car?

integral of F(t)= impulse= change of momentum= Final momentum, since intial velocity is zero. Final momentum divide by the mass, .420kg, would equal the velocity. I do not have a calculator right now but I am sure this is it :) oh by the way, when integrating force, you might want to...

It's my first time here so I guess I have to introduce myself first. I am a junior in high school taking Calculus BC and Physics B (taking Physics C next year). Currently, as of September 29, 2008, my class is learning of Polar equations. We just went over basics but I am not perfectly...
