AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking effective study methods for an upcoming Physics exam, with a focus on Mechanical Physics topics. The individual expresses difficulty in studying alone and finds hiring a tutor financially challenging. Suggestions include utilizing the book "Halliday and Resnick" for theoretical understanding and encouraging the use of the forum for asking questions and receiving help. Additionally, there is a request for recommendations on local institutions in Montreal or online resources that can provide detailed assistance. Engaging with the community for support and resources is emphasized as a valuable approach.

Good day people;

First of all, very interesting website.

I have a problem, and I would sincerely ask for your solution or whatever advice you can give me.

I have a Physics exam that is coming in one month. My skills in solving physics problems are low and I would like to improve that because that exam is extremely important.

My question, what is the best way to study? I cannot study alone because I need a lot of explanation. Hiring a tutor who would take $20/hour is somhow expensive considering the fact that I need a lot of hours.
Are there any institutions I can join (currently living in Montreal) that can help me study Mechanical Physics? (This includes: Energy, Linear/Anular Momentum, Mechnical Oscillations, Forced Oscillations and fluid dynamics).

Or, are there any websites that can provide me detailed help for my questions? (Online help for example?).

I really need your feedback/opinion please as it is really important.

Thank you very much.

Welcome to the forums.

Do you have halliday and resnick. Read it for theory. The book is really good for theory.

And then if you have any doubts while solving the problems or undersatnding the theory, fell free to post it here.Everyone here is to help each other.
 
Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
