Need help with IUPAC name of a metal for Physics class.

AI Thread Summary
The IUPAC name for Ti(CO3)2 is titanium(IV) carbonate, indicating that titanium has a +4 oxidation state. The confusion arises from the naming convention where the carbonate ion (CO3) is recognized as a polyatomic ion. The correct approach involves identifying the oxidation state of titanium and recognizing the carbonate as a single unit. Understanding these naming conventions is crucial for accurately determining IUPAC names in chemistry. Clarification on these steps can enhance comprehension of IUPAC nomenclature.

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 hanging 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...
