    Chebyshev Theorem: Probability of Parts Within .006 of Mean

    Over the range of cylindrical parts manufactured on a computer-controlled lathe, the standard deviation of the diameters is .002 millimeter. (a) What does Chebyshev's theorem tell us about the probability that a new part will be within .006 units of the mean for that run? (b) If the 400...

    Projectile motion of a flying plane

    thats what i thought but then i get stuck when i try to find the time it takes th suitcase to drop the 114 meters. 114 = 35.2t+.5(-9.8)t^2 is this the right equation?

    Projectile motion of a flying plane

    Homework Statement An airplane is flying with a velocity of 90.0m/s at an angle of 23 degrees w/ the horizontal. When the plane is 114 m directly above a dog that is standing on level ground, a suitcase drops out of the luggage compartment . How far from the dog will the suitcase land? You can...

    Calculating Angular Acceleration with Friction on an Inclined Plane

    what about the friction force is it up the incline or down the incline? I am confused about because usually the direction of friction force is opposite the direction of motion.

    Calculating Angular Acceleration with Friction on an Inclined Plane

    im also iffy on the net Torque. I am thinking that friction is the only force causing torque since the 45 N force is acting on the cylinders center. am i right?

    Calculating Angular Acceleration with Friction on an Inclined Plane

    Homework Statement A solid uniform cylinder with mass 5 kg is being pulled with a constant force of 45 Newtons up a 30 degree incline. The force is acting on the cylinders center and is parallel to the incline. What is its angular acceleration? I have a good idea on how to do the problem...
