Is the physics concept of tires kinematics or work/energy? Please explain why.?

AI Thread Summary
The physics of tires can be analyzed through both kinematics and work/energy principles, particularly in the context of car tires. Kinematics focuses on the motion of the tires, including speed and trajectory, while work/energy examines the forces and energy transfer involved in tire performance. The discussion highlights the complexity of tire physics, indicating that a comprehensive understanding requires consideration of both aspects. The vagueness of the term "physics of tires" suggests the need for clarification on specific applications. Overall, a thorough analysis of tires incorporates both kinematic and energy-related concepts.

"physics of tires" is very vague.

If I am correct to assume you are talking about car tires, then they can be analyzed in terms of both energy and kinematics

Thread 'Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?'

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...

Thread 'Derivation of Hamilton's Principle: Questions'

I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
