Hi

how much power is generated by moving a turbine in 40rpm by applying a force of 5kg on the blade at distance of 0.5m from center of rotar ...(the weight is drooped from height of 50m on
the blade )...

thanks

What is the course? Which university? Why have they not given you the learning materials to figure this out? What other learning resources have you tried (google, wikipedia. etc.)?

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...
