Velocity Definition and 1000 Threads

Good day here is the exerciceThe only velocity I do have is the velocity v os the center of pulley 5, I tried to find the center of instantaneous velocity to find the angular velocity of pulley 5 but I couldn't, any hint would be highly appreciated! Best regards!

If I put funnel out of car when driving 100km/h, can speed in narrow section in funnel be higher than 100km/h(freestream) and does bernuli equation works for this case?

This looks like a classical setup but I can't find a solution. We can calculate the energy of the system by looking at the work done by the gravity and the spring. But how do we divide the energy between the kinetic energy of the pulley and the rotation of the pulley?

A stationary observer sees a particle moving north at velocity v very close to the speed of light. Then the observer accelerates eastward to velocity v. What is its new total velocity of the particle toward the north-west relative to the observer? I ask because while the particles total...

The "egg" initially spun around axis 1 with at ##\omega_s##. After being disturbed, it has started to possesses angular velocities along 2 and 3. The question is to find the rotational speed of ##\vec \omega=\vec\omega_1+\vec\omega_2+\vec\omega_3## to a fixed observer. It is calculated that...

i have drawn the E field as below, hence the F will be in the upward direction for electron a. Using energy is constant, the velocity ##v_x## as it crosses A is ##0.5mv_x^2 = q*V_a## ##v_x = \sqrt{(\frac{2qV_a} m)} m/s## one doubt i have here is, the question mentions electrons, but i have...

Hi everyone. My high-school student got the following homework exercise at school which I have problem with: Smoke from the steam locomotive is carried by horizontally blowing wind. Shape of the smoke trail is shown in the attached figure. Using the drawing, determine velocity of the wind...

for example, I want to know velocity of a person when time is equal to t, that person start running from 0m/s (t=0s) to max velocity of 1m/s (t=1s). I am thinking that this is like rain droplet that affected by gravity and drag force, where force is directly proportional to its velocity, to make...

So i know Ek=123.48 from the potential energy that converts into kinetic energy (Ep=1/2kx^2). Now by conservation of momentum, m1v1=m2v2 So m2Sqrt(2Ek/(m1+m2))=m1v1 This is where I am making a mistake I think, but not sure how. Answer is suppose to be 4.44

So Ekf-Eki+Epf-Epi=0. I understand that the final potential energy is 0 (distance away approaches infinity), but don't get why the final kinetic energy becomes 0. If the final kinetic energy was 0, wouldn't that mean the object no longer has any velocity and would start being effected by the...

So I know the acceleration is 0, so the net force is 0. QE=1.6E-3*9.9E3 k hat = 15.84 k hat (thats one force) qv x B = q(v i hat + v j hat) x (0.51 i hat + 0.10 j hat) =q(0.10 v k hat- 0.51 v k hat) =q(-0.41 v k hat) =-0.000656 v k hat Now solving for velocity, 0.000656v=15.84...

Hi everyone! I don't know how to solve the next problem, and if anyone could explain to me step by step how it is solved I would thank you a lot. I know it's not hard, but I'm not seeing how to do it. Thank you in advance!

Is the below Displacement time graph posible? if an object is in motion at a constant velocity, is it possible for it to stop instantaneously, or does there have to be a decelaration? According to Newton's first, an object will remain in its state of constant velocity unless acted upon by...

The Doppler effect of light corresponds to the classical Doppler effect corrected by time dilation, but the first one is obtained with classical velocity additions (c+v at the front of the source and c-v at the back) whereas velocity addition of special relativity gives c at the front and c at...

What if any is the experimental confirmation for length contraction and the velocity addition formula?

So what I did first was calculate the initial and final potential energies with Epi=-9.433*10^11 m and Epf = -1.503*10^12 m. Then I found change in potential energy, -5.597*10^11 m. Using this I determined the change in kinetic energy, 5.597*10^11. I then added this change to the initial...

I rearranged the displacement formula to d2 = d + d1. I used cosine law to solve for d2 since the triangle is not right-angled but I am not getting the correct answer or angle for d2. The angle I used in cosine law (based on the diagram) was 32+12+90 = 134. d = v(t) = 130(3) = 390 km/h [N 32 E]...

Hello, Its been a while since I'm trying to understand the concept of the pilot wave theory and it's relation with the deBroglie wave. What is the fundamental difference between the two? My confusion comes from the double slit experiment. The velocity of the deBroglie wave is c^2/v so I...

My attempt: p and T allows us to calculate ##Z=402 \frac{kg}{sm^2}## using ## Z=p*\sqrt(\frac{\gamma*M}{R*T})## . The sound intensity level at 10 meters allows us to calculate the intensity at 10 meters to be I=10``````^{-7} W/m^2 using ##50 = 10*log(I/I_0)##. Then, using the formula...

So I figured that to find how long did the ball take to hit the ground I would have to subtract 6 with the time it took the sound to reach back to the player. My givens are Velocity Intial = 330 m/s, speed of sound Δd = 50m Velocity Final = 0m/s because sound stops when it reaches the ear...

I am a little confused with the text above. Actually, all is ok until 2.51, i think i am missing something. What is this? Another way to define gamma? (The doubt is not about the raising indices, neither about "n00 = -1", is just where does the equation came from. That is, the equation is easy...

Just curious. We can't figure out Earth's speed of travel through the universe due to the Hubble constant because that would be measured from the center of the universe and the center is located somewhere unknown to us except that it is beyond what we can perceive, i.e., more than about 63 Gly...

1)Starting at rest, he brings the weights into his chest. His angular velocity increases. 2)A friend throws a third weight so that the student catches it in one of his outstretched hands. No matter what the direction of the throw, the student's angular velocity decreases. 3) Starting with...

Consider the Hubble horizon as the proper distance over which Hubble expansion equals c, so that you are in the center of a Hubble sphere with a radius of about 13.5 billion light-years. As you approach light speed in any direction, does the Hubble horizon draw closer in that direction due to...

Hello, There is a physics problem called the Brachistochrone problem which I know has been solved for 0 initial velocity (assumes 0 friction and only gravity) and I know the answer is a cycloid. My question is: is there is an existing formula for finding the portion of a cycloid which is the...

Hello folks, I was wondering how I could calculate/find the velocity of an object from an imparted force given its mass. My force is 26 MN, the object is 10 metric tons, or 10kKg, what will the objects velocity be if this force was applied to it rapidly, e.g. like a jab/punch. My goal is to...

Below I've attached the question - I don't know why this question is so difficult, perhaps I missed a lesson or such, however I've Benn working at it for ages and got nowhere...

The question I am trying to solve is what is the velocity vector (direction and magnitude) of an object in 2 d space. We know the distance measured to the car from two different angles. We know the radial velocity of the car on both measurements. The radial velocity is the component of the...

I was surprised to read that the formula for escape velocity — at least for a spherical mass like the Earth — is the same in relativity as it is in classical physics: v_e = (2GM/r)^{1/2} I'm wondering if someone can give me a good source for deriving this. (I assume one takes a radial...

We know blower compressors i.e. compressors that use a blower to create high velocity for injecting air/fluid to higher pressure and that's available in market. Now, suppose we have such a blower type compressor that can create a flow of air/gaseous fluid of 337 m/s. Question is, what maximum...

Hi Guys I've attempted the question but not sure if the approach I used is correct. Would someone please have a look at my solution and let me know if it makes sense. Thanks!

Okay so what I've done; I've put the diammter d = 1m as r = 1m The time interval of 4s is t = 4s and the angular velocitys as; ω1 = 20 rad/s ω2 = 40 rad/s Now to get the accelaration. Angular acceleration can be split into two parts tangetial acceleration and radial acceleration What I...

There are a few things I'm not getting about this exercise and related diagram: -what does "force from parachutist" consists of? -if the terminal velocity is reached, then ##a=0## which means ##F_{tot}=0##, so shouldn't simply the sum of all forces pointing upwards be equal to the sum of all...

Hi, Can anyone let me know if I had done this Q correctly? Thanks for any help!

Hi everyone, The four fundamental forces are gravity (I understand that G.R. does not look upon gravity as a force but I'm not worried about that here), the Lorentz force, the weak force, and the strong force. I'm familiar with the inverse square law for gravitation and the Lorentz force...

Now I've tried looking at the problem like this. Considering that a is the length off the vehicles that he is trying to jump over I would consider that to be s. The plane from which he starts (b) should be the h. So considering that he is jumping from a horizontal plane, gravity should also...

At time t = 0, the mass of the cart is ##M_0## and velocity is ##v_0## in a time interval ##dt## let a mass of ##dm## be added to the cart due to the pouring water and let the reduction in speed be ##dv## ##\lambda = dm/dt## applying conservation of momentum from the ground frame gives $$M_0...

In Chapter 4, derivation 15 of Goldstein reads: "Show that the components of the angular velocity along the space set of axes are given in terms of the Euler angles by $$\omega_x = \dot{\theta} \cos \phi + \dot{\psi} \sin \theta \sin \phi, \omega_y = \dot{\theta} \sin \phi - \dot{\psi} \sin...

In question 1. since there is no external force on the system of particles(and since it was initially at rest) shouldn't the ##V_{cm}## be zero? But the correct answer applies the above stated formula for ##V_{cm}## and gets ##V_{cm} = v/2## and in question 2 again as there is no external force...

I can't seem to wrap my head around it: if an object is moving at speed v in frame S, and its observed to move at speed v' in S', what is the relationship?

Hi PF It's a multiple choice exercise, and the answer is 10 m/s. I've been wondering why, but no way. Regards

My solution: For the horizontal portion of the chain: let at any instant the length of chain inside the tube is x, and at that instant the chain in the tube is having a velocity v. Then, at any instant: ##F = \frac{\mathrm{d} p}{\mathrm{d} t}## ##p##= mass of the chain in the tube at the...

It was a long time ago I did these kind of problems so I’m a bit rusty. The only thing I can think of is divide it up to two parts one x and one y. In y the acceleration is sin(a)*9.82? Then put that in the equation and solve for t. In x the there is no acceleration so the formula is x=V0*t, I...

What came to my mind for this question is: Consider one of the cars. The velocity and mass of this car are V and M respectively. And the velocity and mass of the piece attached to the car are m, v respectively. Before the collision, the velocity of this piece relative to this car is zero. So its...

Hello! I am trying to solve for the velocity in terms of position of a particle moving with non-constant acceleration. a=c*t (where c is a constant) I can easily solve for velocity in terms of t. dv/dt=a dv/dt=c*t I differentiate and get v=1/2*c*t^2+v0 (where v(0)=v0) However I am not sure...

If τ is the relaxation time, τ means, on average the time between two collisions for an electron moving under a constant electric field inside a metal. Now according to the assumptions of drude model, the electron acquires an additional velocity of \frac{-eEt}{m}where t is the time elapsed since...

The motional EMF is$$\mathcal{E}_{\text{motional}} = \oint_{\partial \Sigma} (\vec{v} \times \vec{B}) \cdot d\vec{x} = \int_{\Sigma} \frac{\partial \vec{B}}{\partial t} \cdot d\vec{S} - \frac{d}{dt} \int_{\Sigma} \vec{B} \cdot d\vec{S}$$(that's because Maxwell III integrates to...

Mass of an electron = 9.1*10^-31 Well, to find the maximum kinetic energy of the electron use E=hf, E=hc/λ=6.63*10^-34*3*10^8/1.5 *10^-7 E=1.326 *10^-18 J 1/2m v^2 max=E Rearrange in terms of v: v=√2E/m v=√2*1.326 *10^-18/ *9.1*10^-31 v=1707127... ~ 171000 ms^-1 Where have I gone wrong here?
