Impulse by Hinge | An Innovative App

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around solving a physics problem involving a square lamina hinged at a corner and subjected to an impulse. Participants emphasize the need to establish unknowns for both linear and angular impulses and the resulting motion. There is confusion regarding the application of angular impulse-momentum equations, particularly concerning the hinge's role. Clarification is sought on how to approach the problem, especially in writing equations related to the hinge's impulse. The conversation highlights the complexity of analyzing the lamina's motion under the given conditions.

Create unknowns for the impulse (allow two components) and for the resulting motion.
What equations can you write?

Do you mean the angular impulse momentum eqns ??

Yes, and linear.

But if we write angular inpulse about a then the it will be 0 for hinge can you please tell me how to write it i am totally confused thanks

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...
