How Do Simultaneous and Axis Rotation Methods Affect Force System Calculations?

AI Thread Summary
Simultaneous and axis rotation methods are critical for accurate force system calculations, but users often struggle with achieving correct results. The discussion highlights a common issue of obtaining excessively large force values, such as exceeding 10,000N, which indicates potential calculation errors. Participants express frustration with their understanding and application of these methods, leading to confusion and incorrect outcomes. The importance of methodical approaches and careful note-taking is emphasized, as many users feel overwhelmed and uncertain about their progress. Overall, mastering these calculation methods is essential for accurate engineering analysis.

Hey guys, this is the question i have been givin. i have been stuck on it for a while now, and i keep getting overly large numbers?
such as over the 10000N range.. and according to the ansers its no where near that figure,
i have about 2 pages of scrap notes i tried working out,

in the simultaneous way and also the axis rotation way, we have to do it in.
im new to this so :S

thanks guys.

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 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...

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...
