    Programs Dual degree (BEng/BSc) - most useful science major?

    Hi guys I am interested in studying chemical engineering at university next year and also want to do a double degree with a bachelor of science. However I am having a hard time deciding what major would be the most useful...any advice would be greatly appreciated. Possible Majors (that...

    Acceleration down slope constant or increasing?

    Im pretty sure constant? Sorry if it seems stupid, just puzzled (I don't do physics) Appreciate the help

    Acceleration down slope constant or increasing?

    Just a simple question, there's a mass on an incline surface and if the parallel force is greater than the frictional force would the mass be accelerating at a constant rate or increasing rate?

    Basics: Object on Incline, Forces (Im Hopeless) Help

    Ok thank you very much ! Now is it possible to calculate the value of the coefficient of friction without using tan theta? Resolving the situation into x and y components, and assuming gravity to be 9.8m/s^2, m*a = (mgsintheta) - (mumgcostheta) m = 0.1kg a = 0 theta = 21 degrees 0 = 0.3512 -...

    Basics: Object on Incline, Forces (Im Hopeless) Help

    Homework Statement Object weighing 100 grams is on a surface which is inclined to an angle where the mass just overcame the coefficient of friction (which is unknown) and started sliding down. Angle was measured to be 21 degrees to the horizontal. What I want to know is would the mass...
