Goal: To have an axle rotate back and forth from one position to the other. We have a motor rotating in one direction How so solve this in a smart/simple way? I'm thinking having 1. one cog on the motor axle, rotating the same way as the motor 2. a second cog connected to the above cog that...

Hello! I've done the following to solve this problem. a) Here I simply put in the time in the equation, s0 is = 0 and after that it was pretty much done $$s(t) = 42 *1 - \frac {9,81*1^2} {2} = 37,09m $$ b) Now here to see when the rocket reaches it maximum altitude and what height it is...

Hey! I'm and undergrad in the third year of my applied physics program. I'm taking a course in Special Relativity, and due to Corona the exam has been replaced by a pretty free project where we delve deeply into a topic related to the course. I'm interested in music, so my professor suggested I...

I have been thinking of the nature of the electric current , or the motion of electrons in a copper cable of a closed DC circuit. Recently I learned the speed of electron is very slow in the copper cable and in a AC circuit the FREE ELECTRONS are in fact moving back and forth. But in a DC...

I have come up with the change in height as 170 cm. My professor does not want to solve for the problem for a reason I do not understand. 170 cm is not part of the answer key. The answer according to the answer key is 65 cm. My attempt is: Initial temperature: p=F/A; (50 *9.8) / (pi * 0.05^2)...

Hello, I have to find an expression for the total movement of a bacteria ##s##, knowing that the bacteria is placed (centered) on a two side ruler at position ##x=0## (so a negative ##x## value means the bacteria has moved to the left of the ruler) and that the probability it moves to ##x## is...

I've got a moving rope that turns a shaft, which then turns a generator to create electricity. Please point me to a good resource that guides me to perform this efficiently. I would like to maximize the conversion of kinetic energy of the pulled rope system into rotational kinetic energy of the...

Answer: E My solution: 1) Load 2q: Y direction: $$ T_1cos\alpha=mg + 2Eq$$ 2) Load q: Radial direction: $$ T_2-\frac{Fel}{sen\alpha}-\frac{Fmag}{cos\alpha}-\frac{mg}{cos\alpha}=\frac{mv^2}{l}$$ $$T_2cos\alpha=\frac{Fel}{tg\alpha}+Fmag+mg+\frac{mv^2cos\alpha}{l}$$ 3) Stem connected to...

I understand that under the GTR space and time are curved and movement takes place along that curved surface. Setting aside for the moment the additional consideration that the space curvature is in three dimensions, I do not understand the impetus for acceleration. If an object is just sitting...

I would like to determine how a point (xo,yo,zo) moves along a geodesic on a three dimensional graph when it initially starts moving in a direction according to a unit vector <vxo,vyo,vzo>. So, if I start at that point, after a very small amount of time, what is its new coordinate (x1,y1,z1) and...

I have not tried to make any calculation. It's nonsense, because I don't understand the statement. The first vector points to the west. Given a two dimensional coordinate system, the first vector is pointing to the left. I imagine geographical coordinates, north (+y), south (-y), west (-x), and...

Let's suppose there's some platform that is rotating with angular speed omega and has a radius R. At t=0 we release some object from the border, which has an initial speed perpendicular to the radius direction with magnitude \omega R and we want to know its position at t=T with respect to the...

hello everyone could you help me with this exercise please muffled movement The mass spring system shown is at rest, to which an external element tensions it 1.9 (cm) (positive section of our study) and releases it, it begins to oscillate describing a damped movement. Considering that k = 180...

Hi, I have a motor that i would like to rotate to a certain angle, in a controlled manner. During the movement, i want to update the final position I want to reach. The new updated function has to start with the same speed the initial function ended with I wan to find a function that does this...

Is it theoretically possible that the whole universe is decelerating in time? My question originates from the discovery, that objects further away accelerates away faster. Is that acceleration measured from us or from the center of the big bang?

The movement in the z-direction is easy to solve for, as it's only affected by the gravitational force. However, if there's a magnetic field pointing down along the z-axis, the particle is going to be accelerated along the y-axis (F=q*v *B). The force is always going to be perpendicular to the...

Using the Lagrangian of the system I reached that ##x(t)=\frac{1}{2} gt^2+ut ## is the real trajectory of the particle. After that, I consider different trajectories: ##x(\alpha,t) = x(t) + \alpha(t)## with ##\alpha(t)## being an arbitrary function of t expect for the conditions...

If a black hole experiences infinitely slow time (IE time stops) due to their singularity, how are they able to move/orbit? If supermassives occupy the centre of most/all galaxies. How are the galaxies moving if the black holes can't?

Besides gravity that always works perpendicular to Earth and thus pulls apples from apple trees towards the ground, there must have been some sort of mid 17th century human made contraption, that used a constant force, produced to move objects with or without wheels, in a direction parallel to...

Hi I have been reading Brian Cox/Jeff Forshaw book on Why does E=mc2 (highly recommend it) One thing I don't get (page 95) is when they say everything moves through spacetime at the same constant speed c?! I get why a person/object A at rest moves through space time with speed c - but say...

I'd like to understand the movement of a particle along the surface of a three dimensional graph. For example, if there is a flat two dimensional plane (z=2 for all x and y), and a unit vector describes its initial direction of movement (<sqrt(2)/2i+sqrt(2)/2j> for example), then the vector...

If I understood well, cosmology makes a difference between matter moving in spacetime and the expansion of spacetime itself. Are these concepts experimentally distinguishable, or this distinction is only in our theories?

I solved this question until the end of the "c)Find the distance until the boat completely stop" However I can not solve the integral I encounter in the solution of the last part of c). Would you please check for math and maybe my mistakes and tell me what to do? Here:

I am just asking how fast an electron spins around the nucleus of the atom at lower temperature such as indoors? and at high temp such as explosion or fire? I know that electricity electrons and energy transfer are much quicker, but I am just asking how fast an electron goes around the nucleus...

If there was no atmosphere and a point mass was released at the 45th parallel and able to counteract the centripetal force of gravity (hovering 10ft off the surface), how long would it take before it ended up at the equator.

Which could be the first step to find the V(t) ?

I have tried to solve it and I would like a confirmation, correction or if something else is suggested... :) Helicoidal movement

Summary: Can a rotating AC Magnetic field induce movement in a static DC Magnetic flux? I'm designing a control panel, and the customer has asked us to reduce the EMC as much as possible; there are no drives, or other noise creating devices, just AC circuits. I thought a good starting point...

I know that the standard mantra of physicists who view themselves and their work as mainstream believe its never aliens. After all, as Carl Sagan reminded us, "extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, " as it should rightly be. But, recently, some pretty extraordinary proof has made its...

I've got a project where I need to move a laser into a detector about 100m away and need to find some motorized stages with the smallest possible incremental movements. The whole package will need to be pretty small, probably no bigger than the size of a bread box. The motorized stages will be...

Hi, i have one big problem with this simple formula, i tried many ways and combinations, but nothing worked how i wanted it. Let's assume we have a distance, let's say it's 100000 units of any type, could be virtual since i am trying to program a 3d physics engine. The object pass that...

If you have enough information could you not determine with certainty the movements of pollen particles in water? In other words, if you were able to measure the movements the particles, then repeat the exact same experiment, with all things controlled, would the particles move in the same way...

I am doing a project, but am struggling to find relationships of proportionality or formulae between my dependent variables (angular velocity, displacement, acceleration of the disc and kinetic energy of the system) and my independent variables (falling masses and then the number of winds) or...

The actual problem I am trying to understand is the suction requirement to move #2 home heating fuel from the outdoor tank to the pump of the burner located in my cellar. But first i just want to understand the movement of fluid in a vertical pipe without worrying about viscosity or...

A very basic level question. Two objects are floating in a vaccum, Object A and Object B. Then distance begins to grow between the two objects. Object A feels acceleration being exerted, Object B does not. What does this show? From a classical perspective, it would be my understanding...

I have a strange question. It's strange because I don't need a correct answer. I need an answer that seems correct and leads to predictable results. I'm making a multiplayer computer game where the players fire cannons in outer space. The cannon shells will move through the gravitational fields...

Homework Statement The position vector of a particle changes: Only by its module. Only by its direction. What can be said about the trayectory of the movement of the particle? Obtain the answer analitically. Homework Equations None. The Attempt at a Solution I think that the trayectory...

Homework Statement Hi, everyone. I came across a basic calculus problem concerning movement of 2 problems, I've attempted to solve it using vector analysis and got 1 answer, and then solved it with differentiation and got a different answer. I'll show a version of it I made which is a bit more...

Particles follows accordingly the general equation: $$ m*\overrightarrow{a}=q*\overrightarrow{E}+q*\overrightarrow{v}\wedge \overrightarrow{B} $$ But in the case of two coupled coils the time varying current at primary coil (and its magnetic field variation) creates corresponding varying...

Hello there, I'd like to model a simplified version of a "Magic Eye" tube (e.g. without the amplification triode, and for a start, 2 dimensions only), or the visible display behavior. What I'm talking about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_eye_tube#Operation Here is a nicer depiction of...

I'm not sufficiently educated on this stuff to properly describe the question. Sorry. Consider the following. a primitive gauge is set up in order to observe the differential air flow between two sources. Assuming static pressure linearly corresponds to differences in flow. so balancing air...

I was watching videos on YouTube and this question suddenly popped into my head: If I was able to push a sub-atomic particle (proton, electron, etc...) a distance of 1 Planck length. Excluding all the quantum interactions and uncertainties, is it possible to measure/calculate how fast the...

Homework Statement A particle of a mass ##m## is embedded in a circular rail, (radius: ##R##), without any friction. In a given moment, the particle finds itselfs without velocity at point C, and a force is applied on the rail, which starts moving with an ## \vec A ## constant acceleration. Use...

Homework Statement As you'll know, the driving force for a circular movement is a centripetal force. But wat is the dynamics for a spiral movement, i.e. an increasing circular movement? And how can I produce it, let's say for a little spherical object, in real life? The Attempt at a Solution I...

Homework Statement I had to answer which of the pulley arrangements illustrated (see picture) is in equilibrium (the drawing went a bit difficult, please see all outer boxes as equal in size and the middle ones as well) I managed to answer that it is arrangement C, by finding out that...

What muscle or tendon is involved when you tried to touch the armpit of the other side of the body and there is slight muscle or tendon pain for the arms that reached out to the other armpit ? I feel some mild muscle pain last night after gym and just want to see the anatomy involved. I'm not...

When we loose the touch with ground no friction is acting..so how we accelarate ? also friction prevent our foot from sliding but also accelarates our body ? how is it possible to acting in 2 different points ( foot and center of mass ) ?

A disc and a hoop (ring) both of same mass and radius roll down an inclined plane of height "h". It is well known the disc has great velocity than that of the hoop at the bottom. I am fixed in the situation after they start rolling horizontally. Which will go farther? If the surface is...

We all know that the photons have a wave-like motion,if the waves on the water form because of the motion of the particles inside the air(oxygen+nitrogen gas and %1 another gasses) so in the beginnig of this process,photons hit the air and make particles jiggle and that make air jiggle and air...

Can someone explain why air rises to the highest point in the body cavities like peritoneal/pleural?
