Homework Statement Two students threw a paper plane towards the bin, hitting a desk at time t=10. The trajectory can be modeled as follows: x=t-2sin(t), y=4-3cos(t) Then there were a few simple questions before: The students are curious about what would have happened to the paper...

I'm not sure about linear momentum - my teacher told me to include it. Thanks for your reply, but I don't understand what you mean by a mathematical model. Sorry, I must seem very thick - but we haven't been taught much of the theory and the info on the internet is quite confusing for the...

I am currently doing a senior physics experiment where we are stopping a computer fan (with steel glued on to the blades) with an electromagnet, and measuring the time it takes to stop at varied resistances (using a rheostat). I also need to calculate the angular and linear momentum and...
