Integrating motion equation to derive displacement
##\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dx_i}{dt} + \frac{d^2x}{dt^2}t## Multiplying dt on both sides and integrating we have ##\int_{x_f}^{x_i} dx = \int_{0}^{v_i t} dx_i + \int_{0}^{at} dvt## so ##x_f - x_i = v_it + at^2##, which is not right Where did I go wrong? I understand that if we substitute a for...- annamal

Relative Velocity of a Passenger Hitting the Dashboard in a Car Crash
Where exactly have I gone wrong? I think it is the part where I assume that the person gains the deceleration of the car, but I have no other way to proceed in this case. Also please only use the equations that I have posted below, and it would help if you would not use the equation for...- brochesspro

Kinematics: two runners with different and non-constant accelerations
1. $$x_{A}(t)=\begin{cases}\frac{1}{2}a_A t^2 & 0\leq t\leq 2.8\\ \frac{1}{2}a_A 2.8^2 +v_A t & t>2.8\end{cases}=\begin{cases}\frac{1}{2}a_A t^2 & 0\leq t\leq 2.8\\ \frac{1}{2}a_A 2.8^2 +a_A\cdot 2.8\cdot t & t>2.8\end{cases}$$ so ##x_A(5)=40## implies ##a_A=\frac{40}{17.92}m/s##. Similarly for...- lorenz0

Pulley system with relative motion
Well, first I tried to understand the relation between the velocities and accelerations of both bodies and I got that the velocity of ##B## is half the velocity of ##A##. This is because a change in length of the cord "that touches ##A##" must be equal to the change in length of the two cords...- Like Tony Stark

How can rounding errors affect calculations in stopping distance?
I did the first three questions and found that the ignition distance without breaking would be 75 m, it would take 8.3 seconds to stop the car with a maximum acceleration of -3.0 m/s^2 and you would go 103,75 m if so.- Bellahhhh

How to get ##\ddot r## when you have ##r##, ##\theta## and right trig
I have a right triangle: one of the angles is ##60°## (that's ##\theta##), one of the sides is ##40 m## long, and the hypotenuse is equal to the radius. Now I can find an expression for ##r## and that expression is ##r=\frac{height}{sin \theta}##. If I differentiate it, I'll get ##\dot r## and...- Like Tony Stark

I Calculate the exit force of a bullet leaving the barrel
So, Basic premise is I have 1 input and one output, Energy friom the gunpower burning is input, and the output is the force which pushes the bullet after it is reduced by the friction. m = 12.96 g s = 0.6985 m (barrel lenght) E = 6734 J k = 0.5 (friction coeffcient) I am sorry for lack of...- JJ_Badoo

A Solving Euler's Principal Axis for Rigid Bodies
When we solve Euler's differential equations for rigid bodies we find the angular acceleration ##\dot{\boldsymbol\omega}## and then the angular velocity ##\boldsymbol\omega##. Integrating ##\boldsymbol\omega## is less straightforward, so we start from a representation of the attitude, take its...- kiuhnm

What does time=0 represent in kinematics
So basically i am confused about time 0 in terms of kinamatics graphs Lets say i throw a ball upwards so what does time t=0 represent, the time after which the ball is released or the time at which ball is about to be released? Secondly in projectile motion if i throw a ball horizontally at a...- Talha
