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 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of the question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
