    Moment Torque
AI Thread Summary
A user seeks lecture notes on the concepts of moment and torque, specifically mentioning the moment of a force and moment of inertia. Recommendations include the Hyperphysics website for detailed explanations. Additionally, a suggestion is made to watch a relevant video lecture from MIT's OpenCourseWare, particularly lecture #19. The discussion emphasizes the importance of these concepts in physics education. Resources like these can greatly aid in understanding moment and torque.

I'm looking for a lecture note on the concepts of moment and torque. Can anyone help find a text on that?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Moment? Moment of a Force (torque)? Moment of Inertia??
 
Moment of a force.
 
Check out the Hyperphysics website.

Also, if you're willing to sit down for an hour you can watch one of the http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Physics/8-01Physics-IFall1999/VideoLectures/index.htm (probably #19 in your case)

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this 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...

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}...
