Angular Momentum of the particle.

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the angular momentum of a particle and finding its velocity. Participants suggest drawing a diagram to aid in understanding the problem. There is confusion regarding the differentiation of components and the relationship between velocity components. Ultimately, one participant expresses relief after resolving the issue. The conversation emphasizes the importance of visual aids and clarity in problem-solving for angular momentum.

Find Angular Momentum.
How to find velocity of a particle.

The Attempt at a Solution


If i differentiate with `dt` both sides, I'm getting velocity y-component=velocity x-component.
Then i feel helpless:cry:

You should try drawing a diagram. Also, what is angular momentum?

what are you differentiating and why? You already know the velocity.

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
