Thank you! I realized I forgot to take into account the potential energy of the sphere at the highest trajectory. I'm working on learning how to use LaTex so that my work is easier to read next time👍

Last time I posted to the forums I was told to use some type of text thing to make equations easier to read for clarity, but I can't figure it out, so sorry if this is hard to read. I know that d = 10-r After making a free-body diagram, I thought the circular force had to equal Tension +...

Thank you so much! I was able to get to hB = 5/9 hA. Setting the peak as the initial velocity really helped!!

Ive done this problem two different ways (sorry it’s messy) and keep getting hB = 1/9 hA, but my homework says it’s wrong. I’m guessing it’s because I assume that v0 is 0, but I’m not sure what other formulas or steps I need to take to either find or omit the variable. Are there any other...

I’m a first year student at the University of Texas studying to become an aerospace engineer. I’m currently retaking the physics course I took in high school because I want to grasp the best understanding I can on the subject especially because it’s so important to my degree. I love math and...
