    Electric Dipole as x l, how do I simplify this correctly?

    A little typo correction, (c) Consider now the limit where x≫l, so that (1±(l/2x))^−2≃1∓l/x Edit: I figured it out please ignore this post...

    Electric Dipole as x l, how do I simplify this correctly?

    Electric Dipole as x >> l, how do I simplify this correctly? Homework Statement ELECTRIC DIPOLE : 15.0 POINTS A charge −Q is located at x=−l/2 and a charge +Q is located at x=l/2. Thus the separation between the two charges is l. The total electric field on the x-axis can be written...

    Torque to linear acceleration.

    Fy = Fna + Fnb - Fg = 0 Fna + Fnb = Fg Fx = F - fa - fb = F -.1(Fg) Fx = 882.4 N ax = 7.35333 m/s^s T = 1200 + .5Fna - .5Fnb + (fa x r) + (fb x r) fa = .1Fna fb = .1Fnb [PLAIN]http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/3497/unled3t.png

    How Is Angular Velocity Affected by Torque in a Multi-Pulley System?

    Homework Statement Q2: IF mA=2kg, mB=7kg, and mC=5kg. Starting from rest, if a torque of 5Nm is given at t=0 to pulley A about point A for 3 seconds. Determine the angular velocity of the 3 pulleys at t=3s. [PLAIN]http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/8214/unled2tw.png Homework Equations...

    Torque to linear acceleration.

    I have a free body diagram. But i don't understand how to take that and figure out the linear acceleration and then find out the forces acting on A and B. I mean its not as simple as 1000 - .1(120kg)(9.8) = 120kg * a, a =7.35 m/s? I need to know how to approach this problem after I have the...

    Torque to linear acceleration.

    Urgent! Torque to linear acceleration. Please Help! Homework Statement Q1: A horizontal force F=1000N is applied on a 120kg fridge as shown below. If friction is present, what is the magnitude of the fridge linear acceleration, and the magnitude of the normal forces acting at A and B? (hint...

    What is the Terminal Velocity of an Object Subjected to Drag Force?

    why would I divide gravity by mass? y is the displacement in the y direction from the point that the object began following

    What is the Terminal Velocity of an Object Subjected to Drag Force?

    I changed my frame of reference around and it worked out better using dv/dt + 4v = 9.8. I also got y(t) = 2.45t + 6.125e^-4t is that right?

    What is the Terminal Velocity of an Object Subjected to Drag Force?

    I've taken Calc I and II and I am taking Calc III right now and I never remember having to solve these. So far based on what I just been reading i get v(t) = 2.45 - 2.45e^4t with the initial condition being V(0) = 0. is that right? and if so why is the graph backwards. it seems like it should be...

    What is the Terminal Velocity of an Object Subjected to Drag Force?

    Homework Statement An object of 0.5kg is dropped from rest at an altitude of h=500 meters. It falls while being subjected to a drag force, defined as: fD = 2v . Derive explicitly: v(t), and y(t) and plot v(t) given the initial conditions; use: t between 0 and 0.4 seconds, and v between 0...

    Invertible Elements in Zn and Factoring over Z[i]

    wow do you guys read, this is a math 100 course at a ****ty university, you automatically assume that the teacher is perfect, and there is no textbook for the 2nd time, but thanks for the topics of research dick i have a starting point

    Invertible Elements in Zn and Factoring over Z[i]

    thanks, and he says his teacher didn't explain it to him at all so that's why I'm doing this for him. If you could clarify, what does mod n mean? And how would he go about factoring 5 + i over Z[i]? would it just be 5?

    Invertible Elements in Zn and Factoring over Z[i]

    Homework Statement Can someone explain the notation of the integer ring(Z)? My friend's in Math 100 and has questions on Z. I have never heard of ring's before and I'm at a loss to help him. From what I've gathered Z is a set of all integers. They ask for the invertible elements in different...
