A Quick "Lesson" on Physics and sin graphs

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on seeking assistance with understanding physics concepts related to motion along a sine graph, specifically the equation y(t) = -sin(x(t)). Participants are encouraged to share equations, lesson plans, or examples that can aid in calculating velocity, distance, and force for this type of motion. The original poster expresses uncertainty about how to begin solving the problem. The conversation highlights the need for foundational knowledge in physics to tackle these calculations effectively. Overall, the thread emphasizes the importance of collaborative learning in grasping complex concepts.

Homework Statement


Well instead of asking the entire question, I just would like some help getting started. What equations, or even some lesson plans/examples, are out there that can help me with finding things like velocity, distance moved, force, etc on something that moves along a sin graph.

Homework Equations


y(t)= -sin(x(t)) is the specific graph I am working with.

The Attempt at a Solution


Help? :(

I didn't notice the guy who responded but thank you haha.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
