Ramp and Pulley: Solve for Acceleration, Tension & Projection
Im studying for a test tomorrow and I'm doing a question, which someone posted the answers to on here in another topic i did it and got the wrong answer apparently can someone check and make sure I am not messing up? A pulley device is used to hurl projectiles from a ramp (mk = 0.26) as...- SlainTemplar

Banked Curves using Radius and speed
Well i ended up completing the question, i ended up just going to my teacher for help. i can see why it was so hard for it to be explained xD there's a lot u have to do and i was on a totally different track. Thanks for the help though Delphi51 :)- SlainTemplar

How Many G-Units Did Colonel John P. Stapp Experience Stopping His Rocket Sled?
anytime, Glad i could help, don't forget to convert to g's, the conversion factor is: 1g = 9.81 m/s^2 basically 1g is the acceleration of gravity- SlainTemplar

Banked Curves using Radius and speed
okay i officially hate this problem. I am playing with a triangle diagram for Fn and Ff, and I am using Ffx + Fnx = mv^2/r Ffx = mv^2/r - Fnx so then i got got a formula for fnx tan theta = fnx/fny tan theta = fnx/mg because fny = Fg and Fg = m(9,81) therefore, Fn = tan theta (mg) so then i...- SlainTemplar

Thats right. so you have v1, v2, and t, and your looking for acceleration so what formula has all of those variables in it- SlainTemplar

okay so you have time, and velocity and your looking for acceleration. But Velocity can be split into V1(Initial) and V2(Final) so what was his initial velocity and final velocity?- SlainTemplar

What are your givens and your requirements. Writing those down makes finding the correct formula to use easier- SlainTemplar

Banked Curves using Radius and speed
Okay so i have a test and so I'm reviewing for it, and one of the questions i came across was: 1. A curve of radius 180 m is being designed in a new highway to allow cars traveling at 70 km/h to round the curve with zero frictional forces. a) At what angle must the road be banked? b) What is...- SlainTemplar
