    Understanding The Electric Flux of A Cube Rotated by an Angle Theta

    Hey, all, so I have been studying this problem all morning, and I do not understand two aspects to this example problem. I included a photo of the diagram used in this problem. You will see two cubes, but the diagram which corresponds to the problem below is the one on the right.PROBLEM: Find...

    Vectors in two dimensional motion: Need help with starting

    Alright, thanks for the link. But, I still don't know if this is correct, but I managed to get this. I added both vectors, giving me approx. 55 ft. Then I took the square root of that to get approx. 7 ft. I then subtracted 7 from 55 to get the answer: 48 ft. Is that the basic way of doing these...

    Vectors in two dimensional motion: Need help with starting

    Homework Statement A car travels 20.0 km due north and then 35.0 km in a direction of 60(degrees) west of north. Using a graph (that you must construct yourself as the book says... sorry for the inconvenience :/) and find the magnitude and direction of a single vector that gives the net effect...

    Solve Tension Problem: A Sledge w/ Bricks & Coefficient of Kinetic Friction

    What do you mean by "draw all the forces on the sledge and get them to add to zero"? I'm lost.

    Solve Tension Problem: A Sledge w/ Bricks & Coefficient of Kinetic Friction

    Here's the problem: A sledge loaded with bricks has a total mass of 18.0 kg and is pulled at constant speed by a rope inclined at 20.0(degrees) above the horizontal. The sledge moves a distance of 20.0m on a horizontal suface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sledge and surface is...
