Oh, alright! Thanks

So then we assume that the charge of the balloon has a charge of -8mc? We have only touched the Conservation of Charge conceptually...

Electro Statics...What am I missing!? Homework Statement A balloon rubbed against denim gains a charge of 8.0microcoulumbs (I can't do the sign O.o). What is the electric force between the denim and balloon when the two are separated by a distance of 5.0 cm? Homework Equations...

None of these equations exactly answer the problem, one of them doest mention when a mass is added to the end, but it requires you using Frequency, while I don't have the frequency... After watching a lecture on that wikipedia page he explained the equation: T= 2Pie sqroot(m/k) This will solve...

Homework Statement A spring with a spring constant of 1.8 X 102 N/m is attached to a 1.5 kg mass and then set into motion. a. What is the period of the mass-spring system? b. What is the frequency of the vibration? Homework Equations The only one that comes to mind would be Hooke's Law...

Regardless, thank you both for the answers, today in class I had a very easy time and inelastic VS. Elastic Momentum was a breeze, also systems with 3 or 4 objects were made easier with the help of you guy's insight. Thank you

So if for example, the problem went on to say the first skater then threw one more snowball, I could add a m3 and a v3?

So you can incorporate the momentum of multiple objects into a conservation of momentum problems? Then add them together to solve for one variable?

Well the once sentence answers weren't really getting me anywhere. So the answer by him actually helped. I realized that I needed to be doing, and it gave me a better overall understanding of the section

Right but what I don't understand is how to take into account the skater's initial velocity, final velocity, and the effect the throwing has on the velocity

Homework Statement A 65.0 Kg ice skater is moving to the right with a velocity of 2.50 m/s throws a .0150 kg snowball to the right with a velocity of 32.0 m/s relative to the ground a. What is the velocity of the ice skater after throwing the snowball? Disregard the friction between the...

Homework Statement A 4.00 kg block is pushed along the ceiling with aconstant applied force of 85 N that acts at an angle of 55 degrees with the horizontal. The block accelerates to the right at 6.00 m/s2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic force between the block and cieling Homework...
