SUMMARY
The discussion centers on solving a differential equation related to motion, specifically finding the velocity at point C using kinetic energy principles. The participant confirms that the work done from point A to C is derived from the difference in potential energy between these points. There was a clarification regarding the translation of "R" from circumference to radius, which is crucial for accurate calculations. Overall, the analysis presented is deemed correct and mathematically sound.

Edit: Work done from A to C is the difference of the potential energy between these two points, am i wrong?

By the way in the problems text i translated R as circumference, but its actually a radius R.

In my judgment, you did all this correctly. I think you should have more confidence in your ability. Your analysis was very nice, perceptive, and mathematically talented.

Thank you very much Chet, I can't help it,I always had some difficulties to translate "physics thoughts" into math language so maybe I am overly cautious, sometimes i even waste time writing code for motion simulations to make sure something behaves like its supposed to, but it seems I'm getting the hang of it.Thanks again for your support.Chestermiller said:
