AI Thread Summary
A user is seeking a comprehensive conversion table to easily convert various units, such as centimeters to terameters. They specifically mention needing conversions for time, length, area, volume, and weight. A suggestion is made to refer to a specific metric prefix definition resource for additional clarity. Another user recommends the "Pocket Ref" by Glover as an invaluable tool for unit conversions, available at hardware stores. This discussion highlights the need for accessible and detailed unit conversion resources.

I need a table that i can easily find the ways to convert any unit to any other unit i want for example i have 589348cm and i want to change it to Tm i need a table that will easily show me the conversion factor
 
Physics news on Phys.org
thank you...
 
I actually need a very complete conversion table for example time length area volume weight and for example 1cm= 10-2 m a0-5 km 0.394in 3.28X10-2 ft 6.21 x 10-6 mi
 
get the Pocket Ref, by Glover, published by Sequoia Publishing at most hardware stores. Invaluble tool
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...

Thread 'A bead-mass oscillatory system problem'

Thread 'A bead-mass oscillatory system problem'

I can't figure out how to find the velocity of the particle at 37 degrees. Basically the bead moves with velocity towards right let's call it v1. The particle moves with some velocity v2. In frame of the bead, the particle is performing circular motion. So v of particle wrt bead would be perpendicular to the string. But how would I find the velocity of particle in ground frame? I tried using vectors to figure it out and the angle is coming out to be extremely long. One equation is by work...
