Thank you for giving a general idea of where I would need to go. Now that I understand that it is a team effort. Should I learn the basics of verilog?

My apologies for the confusion. Suppose I want to build a mobile processor, are there any software (I understand that it may not be cheap) where I can do this?

chip design at the semiconductor level.

Thank you guys for the response. I never actually seen anything on designing chips with Eagle. Are there any good tutorials that can get be started? I've used Altera for basic PCB design but never for designing chips.

I am finishing my degree in Mathematics and will be enrolling into a Mathematical Physics program. My goal is to work with Semiconductors. Is this possible to find software that chip design engineers use? I would like to design my own chips with software to build a basic understanding that...

Where I am drawing a mental blank is if I divide it into two right trianges I get that a sides are the hypotenuse and the opposite angle of mass 1 is !/2a but the how do I find the adjacent side to mass 1?

Sorry, I forgot to mention I did. I drew what forces acted on mass 1 as well.

Homework Statement Three point particles are fixed in place in the xy plane. The three partiles sit on the corners of an equilateral triangle with sides of length a = 2.50 mm. Particle 1 has a mass m1 = 12.0 kg, particle 2 has a mass m2 = 18.0 kg, and particle 3 has a mass m3 = 15.0 kg. 1...

My apologies. The spheres are 1/3rd the length of the bar. L is the length of the bar. So the length of the spheres are (1/3)L

Homework Statement A barbell that consist of a long thin rod of mass M and length L is attached to two uniform spheres on each end. Both spheres have mass M and (1/3)L. The sphere on the left is hallow (spherical shell) and the sphere on the right is solid. What is the moment of inertia for...

For some reason the only equation I can think of to find frequency is 1/T. But this can't be right because I need to know the mass of the block. I can't use T = 2pi/w (w being omeaga) because I wasn't given an angular velocity. I know this is simple but I can't wrap my head around what I am missing.

Homework Statement An oscillator consists of a block attached to a spring (k=400 N/m). At some time t, the position, velocity, and accelleration of the block are x = 0.100m, v = -13.6 m/s, a - 123 m/s2 A) Calculate the frequency of the oscillation for the system B)What is the mass of the...

Awesome, thank you

When solving for k: k =(8pi2)/4 = 2pi2 When solving for m: m = ((kT2)/(4pi2)) - 2

Thank you for the response. Does this mean I solve both Period equations for k first then solve for mass?
