My problem states, 2s is required for the mass to slide the distance d from a resting position. If the height h is increased by a factor of 4, while holding theta(angle) at 30, how long does it take the mass to slide the new distance d from rest? height h =5. My main question is (don't...

Ahhh, thank you DocAl :)

Ok, sorry guys I know which equations I should use now, but please give me a small hint as to the first step to this problem.

The curvature in Mars is such that its surface drops a vertical distance of 2.0 meters for every 3600 meters tangent to the surface. In addition, the gravitational acceleration near the surface is 0.4 times near the surface of Earth. What is the speed a golf ball would need to orbit Mars near...

thats exactly what I needed to know :)

Just looking through some old papers and found a problem that I don't know how to solve. Two identical 1.0-kilogram blocks of copper metal, one initially at a temp OC and the other initially at a temp of 100C are enclosed in a perfectly insulating container. The two blocks are initially...
