Net Force of A: Diagram Analysis

AI Thread Summary
To find the net force on object A, the relevant equations include the force between charges FAB=KqAqB/r², and the components of the forces Fx=Fcosθ and Fy=Fsinθ. The total force can be calculated using the formula FR=sqrt(Fx² + Fy²) and determining the angle θ with θ=tan⁻¹(Fy/Fx). Participants are encouraged to calculate the vector forces F_AB and F_AC, then sum these vectors to obtain the total force acting on A. Providing the calculations will help clarify the process.

You need to find the vector forces ## F_{AB} ## and ## F_{AC} ## and sum those force vectors to get the total force on A. Can you show us your work on that?
 
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...
