Help calculating the current from the density and a rotating frame

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the current I(t) from the given current density and surface vector in a rotating frame, the integration of the current density function J with respect to time t in the x direction is necessary. The current density is expressed as J = J0 * x/Λ, and the surface vector A is defined in terms of cosine and sine functions of angular frequency wt. Clarification on the configuration and rewriting the current density function may aid in understanding the problem better. The integration approach should focus solely on the x direction due to the absence of a y component in the current density. This method will help in accurately determining I(t).

hi need help in physics HW:
given current density [J][/→]=[J][/0][x][/Λ]
and rotating frame with given surface vector:
$$ A^→ = A_0(cos(wt)x^Λ + sin(wt)y^Λ$$
in need to calculate I(t)
i tried
I = ∫J*dA
but i don't know i to technically do the math
please help me

Could you elaborate - it's not so clear what problem you actually want to solve! First off, what does the configuration look like?
 
Hi there. Rewrite your current density function to make it clearer.

Going off of what you've written, it looks like you would integrate your current density function with respect to "t" in the "x" direction since there is not a "y" direction in your current density function.
 
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'
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...
