    Why Do Different Reference Points in Moment Calculations Affect the Result?

    Homework Statement Determine the reaction at C. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution i know i have to take the moment about line DB and thus resulting in ƩM(DB)= λ(DA X F) + λ(DC X RC) =0 where λ = DB/ DB however the book solved it differently. they instead do...

    Reassure Me: Linear Momentum Homework

    And since there are no external forces acting on it, then momentum is conserved. so, we have to finish with what we started. if there was a external forces, such as in a rocket thrust problem, then we will have to involve impulse, in order to calculate the the Vf of the rocket, right?

    Reassure Me: Linear Momentum Homework

    @Rude man, I am confused. so in general, M(total) *V(initial)= M(train)*V(final train) + m(of sand)* velocity( throughout the 30 mins) which gives me vf=20m/s. which is sort of weird, since is the same velocity we started with. Is it okay to think of it this way; that in order to have...

    Reassure Me: Linear Momentum Homework

    It is an example question from old quizzes. why? the problem doesn't make sense? can someone help me? so would it be (100,000)(20)= (85,000)(vf) +(15,000)(20)? because the sand that is falling out, has the same speed of the cart throughout the 30 mins
