I want to learn about basic and advanced angular momentum

AI Thread Summary
Understanding angular momentum begins with basic principles but quickly escalates to complex topics like gyroscopic precession and cross-coupled inertial moments. Familiarity with foundational concepts is crucial for grasping advanced applications. Users are encouraged to share their educational background for tailored guidance. Starting with resources like HyperPhysics and Wikipedia can provide a solid foundation. Specific questions can help clarify challenging aspects as learning progresses.

It would help if we know your background. (Posting your education in your profile helps.)
The subject starts simply but it gets more complicated with gyroscopic precession and even more complicated when there are cross-coupled inertial moments.

You might look at this and see if you can get started on it and if you get stuck somewhere. Then ask more specific questions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_momentum
 
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 hanged 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...
