    Simple Pendulum Centripetal Acceleration

    Homework Statement http://screensnapr.com/v/tC6gC3.jpg Homework Equations Im guessing: Centripetal Acceleration = v^2/r PE = mgh KE = .5mv^2 The Attempt at a Solution I tried to convert the givens into velocity by using .5mv^2, but that does not work.

    Undergrad Converting eV to V: Debunking the Myth and Simplifying the Process

    I've done some research on this, but some people say that you cannot convert these two things. They say that V is electric potential, and eV is energy. What I was thinking was since eV = Q[SUB]electron[SUP] * V, can't you just divide eV by charge of electron to get V? Sorry if this is a...

    High School Flux, Capacitance, Difference Potential, and Volt

    I have a question about electricity and magnetism. My teacher went through these chapters in 3 days, and I am completely confused. Can some body please explain what exactly is flux, capacitance, difference potential, and voltage? And can you also explain to my what the number stands for when...
