Where is a good place to go to get a ton of practice questions?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
My new thing is the even questions in the book. Work threw them and show up at profs. office hours, even if he hasn't done them all he has an answer solution Then go over the ones you got wrong with him to see where you went wrong. Works like a charm.
 
I do not have a book...was just looking for a website or something where I can print out a ton of practice questions and attempt to sharpen up.
 
It might help if you stated your level and the sorts of problems and topics you were interested in.
 
Well mainly I am trying to study up for the Mechanical Comp portion of the ASVAB and if I do not score high enough in the various areas I will need to better understanding of basic physics for the NAPT test.

It is basic physics (acceleration, gravity, forces, 3 laws of Newton, etc)
 

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...
