Rolling Definition and 1000 Threads

Firstly, I need to determine what the electric field is causing. Using left hand rule, the force due to the field is acting down the slope. Hence my FBD looks like: Where the two arrows pointing towards the right represent the force due to the field and weight of the cylinder. Since ...

Ok so please bear with me here and what is almost certainly a really stupid question, partly because I don't quite know how to ask it. When you have a wheel such as one attached to a car, a torque is applied to it from the engine. It's my understanding that the wheel would slide over the road...

I know the ans comes out to be mgsintheeta/3 by using f=ma and the torque eqn but my question is as stated in the question the cylinder is in pure rolling hence friction should only try to oppose mgsintheeta so that the accelration does not change hence v remains equal to rw so why is the ans...

Hi, I've been following the derivation of wolfram mathworld for this problem and I'm running into some trouble regarding the summation indices. Currently I am at the step where we have found that (it's pretty much just binomial expansion and taylor series to get to this point) $$ f(x) =...

Figure: a) The mechanical energy of the sphere is conserved because the weight is the only force which does work. My problem with this question is mostly because the original picture (which I tried to recreate here) is kind of ambiguous, as in I don't know if H already accounts for the radius...

So looking at the solution, FBD for A makes sense: Normal points inwards, gravity and friction oppose each other, with friction pointing up. B confuses me: the solution says there is only Normal and gravity pointing downwards, but if "the sphere rolls without slipping during the entire motion"...

I've been teaching myself Probability Mathematics, but I'm still struggling. Please help me understand with an example. Say I roll five six-sided dice all at once, with die faces numbered 1 through 6. I want to determine the probability of AT LEAST three 6s occurring. First, is this the best...
