[Paper and presentation] Mechanics in Computer

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a group assignment to write a paper and create a presentation on mechanics, with a focus on selecting a specific topic. The chosen topic is rotational mechanics in CD-ROMs, and the poster seeks suggestions for additional resources such as articles, images, and videos. They mention using Google Images and YouTube for research. The poster is open to feedback on the topic's relevance and any other trending topics in mechanics research. Overall, the aim is to gather useful materials to enhance their project on rotational mechanics.

Homework Statement


Hi guys!
I have pre-midterm assignment in group to write a paper an d a presentation on the screen about mechanics. My group gives me a job to decide more specific topic and to search the matter (articles, pictures, videos, etc.) also about that specific one.
Do you think our topic is good? Any other interesting or hot topic (due to the trend of mechanics research recently)?

Homework Equations


Equations would be essential in that paper: I think it would be such:
$ \theta=\theta_0+\omega_0t+ \frac{1}{2} \alpha^2$
or
$F=ma$

The Attempt at a Solution


Actually I have decide the specific topic is: rotational mechanics in CD-ROM, :wink:.
I have tried picture-googling to find a CD picture, and see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM" .
Youtube also would be very valuable in search of video.
What kind of other matters I was suggested to search? Where?

Sorry, I don't see that I've made double thread. I don't mind if this thread would be deleted. :)
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

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...
