Homework Statement In our physics lab we were to set up a system looking like this: where the mass was released and the velocity/acceleration and of the ring was calculated using MotionLab software. Our goal was to find the predicted total moment of inertia by just calculating the moment of...

No I didn't use gravity. I just used 3.3-2.33 and tried 2.33-3.3. How would I take gravity into account?

Homework Statement Just before hitting the ground, a partially inflated 0.625kg basketball has a speed of 3.30m/s. Then it loses half of its kinetic energy as it bounces. (A)What is the ball's speed immediately after it bounces?(B) If the ball is in contact with the ground for 9.25ms, what is...
