Homework Statement A copper tube, of internal radius 6.959mm, overall radius 7.975mm, thickness 1.016mm, contains water at 68 deg Celsius, and is present in a room with an ambient temp of 26.65 deg Celsius. If the tube is 1000mm long, what will be the rate of heat transferred from the...

Help Greatly Needed -- Physics Of Golf dear physicist, I have found myself in a predicament. With only two weeks of assignment time left, and a joke of a teacher for help, I desperately need some expert help. We are using LoggerPro to plot points on a sports-related video we have recorded...

Hey guys, I'm a student at high school in Australia. I currently have a physics assignment that states i have to explain the forces and physics of an object. I have chosen cycling. I know the basic s=d/t and a little bit on airflow and using the "teardrop" shape in helmets and frames, but...

thanks jt... this site was great. I have looked around a bit and decided to further study the airflow of an object (there's heaps of windtunnel studies on the net) , downhill speed and terminal velocity (can it be reached due to stability?). Thanks guys Nel
