Why Does Object A Reach the Bottom First in a Rigid Body Dynamics Experiment?
Homework Statement Three objects of equal mass, A, B and C, are released from rest at the same instant from the same height on identical ramps. Objects A and B are both blocks, and they slide down their respective ramps without rotating. Object C rolls down the ramp without slipping. Its...- letoiledemer

Internal vs external force - conservation of momentum in one dimension
Homework Statement This problem concerns a collision experiment performed on a frictionless surface with gliders A and B, with masses m(a) and m(b) respectively. In a level track, glider B has a spring-loaded plunger attached to it. At time t(i), glider A moves to the right with speed...- letoiledemer
