do you mean to make right triangles out of every side? I suppose that might work.

My physics text really sucks at explaining this... I consulted my pre-calc text but it sent me on a three chapter tangent of sinusoids which really don't concern me now. I'm sort of running out of time so, please help. Here's the question (I need how to solve it not just a number and unit) A...

Becoming a particle physicist?? This is my first year in physics--as a mere high school student, but I absolutely love it. I think physics on a molecular level is really cool, and a subatomic level even cooler. But I think Particle Physics may be the path for me. I can only afford the local...

Hey, you seem to be really physics savvy, could you check out my post--maybe you could help me too? Its 'Analyzing Force vs. Time graphs'

I haven't got all that far in class yet, but it makes sense to me like this: An object moving across a frictionless surface will maintain the same velocity due to its inertia. Inertia is dependent on an object's mass so it follows that if the mass increases, the degree at which the object...

1. [FONT="Comic Sans MS"]I REALLY need help here! I've been doing pretty good in physics so far this year, but a new quiz devastated me. Here's the problem: I was given a Force vs. Time graph and a lot of the questions pertained to the mass of the object. How do I find the mass only given a F vs...
