Undergrad Do pseudo vectors have anything to do with motion?
"angular quantities" are just abstractions that prequire special conditions to facilitate some computations. so yes, they are arbitrary, but they are mostly consistent and make it easier to do standard stuff. in most cases they are the analogues of the integral of the of the continuous function...- 'roidbreaker

High School How to measure speed without knowing the distance?
if that's true, then we can't really help you. if you determine speed and time, you automatically determine distance. if you determine acceleration and time, you can determine velocity, and hence distance. perhaps you don't want to use a direct measure of distance, like a ruler, a camera...- 'roidbreaker

High School How to measure speed without knowing the distance?
if it's the size of a key to it you probably won't be ductaping a phone to it. I would use my basic stamp or raspberry pi and buy an accelerometer module for that which i would tack onto the gizmo and connect to the controller with some lightweight wires. but apparently there are...- 'roidbreaker

How Should I Spend My Time Studying?
learning math early is not a waste of time. trigonometry and calculus are really easy concepts to understand if someone explains them to you intuitively, and you could achieve some level of proficiency in a day. If you're really curious, ask your parents to hire a tutor and sit down with him or...- 'roidbreaker

how about an accelerometer? just put your android phone in the cube or whatever and write or download a dead reckoning app. \spoiler{ Protip: velocity is the integral of acceleration }- 'roidbreaker

Graduate Stress around Fulcrum - How to Justify Net Momentum?
discrete parts of the square would have various different "momentums" as indicated by the arrows, but the square as a whole isn't rotating, because the net momentum on both sides of the axis is zero. actually forget the axis, the axis isn't doing anything and probably just confusing things.- 'roidbreaker
