How convenient of you to wait for the last minute. Just post your practice exam as an attachment; the questions you are having problems with along with your attempts and we'll see what will happen from there.
 
Following the rules of this forum, we can't help someone until they show SOME work. We do not do homework for people, we help with homework. As for waiting until the last minute, that was your mistake. You can't expect people here to change the rules just for you. If you still need help, please show some work.
 
well

well i tried to post the pics up and everything but i couldn't the file is a bit to big so like i said i will email it to anyone if they wish
 
Well put it up on some external server - imageshack, rapidshare, etc.
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
