    Question about omega (angular velocity)

    Probably. I've had to use RC for a high-pass and low-pass filter, but I guess that's because of they have a cut-off frequency. I guess I'm confused as to when RC and when to use 1/jwc.

    Question about omega (angular velocity)

    If I had a voltage Vg = 2cos(105t) V going into the op-amp, would I still use 105 rad/s as my angular velocity, or \frac{1}{RC}?

    Question about omega (angular velocity)

    Does it change anything if the circuit involves an op-amp?

    Question about omega (angular velocity)

    For a capacitor in an AC circuit, does \omega = \frac{1}{RC} always? I have voltages such as Vg = 2cos(105t) V. When finding the capacitance using the formula C = \frac{1}{jwc} would I use \omega = 105 or would I use \omega = \frac{1}{RC}?

    KVL with a current source in loop

    I'm trying to solve for a number of different currents in a circuit, and I'm wondering how to do KVL with a current source in a loop? The current source is actually part of two loops, so is it possible to just name the current source 'V' during KVL and add (or subtract) the two resulting...

    How do I solve for B in this moment and vector homework?

    What does projecting the line of action of the force tell me about the sign convention? I'm working along a problem in my textbook which is exactly the same, except the angles and forces are SLIGHTLY different. It has Ay and B as being negative, and Ax as being positive. I figured out how Ay...

    How do I solve for B in this moment and vector homework?

    Another question... is B negative? If so, can you explain why?

    How do I solve for B in this moment and vector homework?

    Ahh, okay. So I have the 34kN sign convention correct? It's kind of confusing deciding which way you think it'll go.

    How do I solve for B in this moment and vector homework?

    Isn't the y-component trying to rotate it counterclockwise, while the x-component is trying to rotate it clockwise?

    Equilibrium normal reaction force problem

    Haha, well that means I got the question wrong. Damn. Tsin30^{\circ} - 752N = 0 344N - Tcos30^{\circ} = 0 ?

    How Do You Solve a Math Problem Using Spherical Coordinates?

    No, we haven't. Either our professor is assuming we've been taught this before... or... I'm not sure. That is why I really don't understand this question.

    How Do You Solve a Math Problem Using Spherical Coordinates?

    The two longitude's and the two latitude's... I'm not seeing how you can use the dot product with four angles...
