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.- KingOfTwilight

Undergrad 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.- KingOfTwilight

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

High School 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...- KingOfTwilight

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?- KingOfTwilight

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 .- KingOfTwilight
