    Solving Momentum Problems: Rocket, Crate & Cannon

    First: x-component was correct but y is wrong.

    Another Angular Acceleration Problem

    You have two equations, omega = alpha * t, and fi = ½ * alpha * t^2, these equations are like v = at and s = ½at^2 in linear motion. You also have two unkwons, so you can solve both. Then use M = J*alpha.

    Two Billiard Balls Meeting at Origin - Final Direction & Speeds

    Use conservation of momentum, remember that momentum is a vector.

    Could some people help to solve an arguement?

    The correct answer is F=f.

    Could some people help to solve an arguement?

    F does not create any force f. F creates acceleration a, which you think is caused by some force f.

    Could some people help to solve an arguement?

    F doesn't create any force. Actually it makes the object accelerate, so f should be a = F/m.

    What are vvvdat tables and how can they help with introductory physics homework?

    Gradient FAQ or guide/introduction would be marvellous! I've been trying to learn about them but I still lack some general understanding. (I can do problems but still have no "clear picture".) If someone can suggest websites, please do so. I'm still in high school so self-studying this kind of...

    Force of Friction: Calculating Car's Acceleration

    The friction force causes the acceleration of that mass (car). Use F = ma.

    Force of Friction: Calculating Car's Acceleration

    You should be able to find the acceleration. Acceleration is the change of speed divided by the time taken. You know the time, how about the speed?

    Understanding Electric Power and Transformer Input: A Detailed Explanation

    P = UI, this is the power the current heats the cable + the power the device in the other end is using.

    Magnetic Field and Induced Currents in Rails Problem

    Yes there is current if the circuit is closed. E = bvB \sin{\alpha} , here \alpha = \pi. You can deduce the latter from this: E = \frac{d \Phi}{dt} when you remember that A (t) = ab (t) = vtb .

    Angular Velocity: Reference Dot Speed at 2000 RPM for 8 cm Disk

    Yes, you're right, omega = 2000 rpm. Just convert that into SI.
