At what velocity does the stone impact? (Link to picture included)

AI Thread Summary
To determine the velocity at which the stone impacts, it's essential to apply relevant physics equations, particularly those related to projectile motion. The discussion emphasizes the importance of showing work before receiving assistance, as per forum rules. Participants suggest starting with basic equations of motion, such as those for free fall and initial velocity. Understanding these equations will help in solving the problem step by step. Engaging with the material and demonstrating effort is crucial for effective learning and support.

I have no clue how to do this problem, so if someone could explain to me step by step, it would be greatly appreciated!

Nvm, I did it.
 
It's against forum rules to help someone if they haven't shown any work. So can you at least start my writing down some relevant equations that you might have learned in class?
 

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...
