    Push Solenoid
AI Thread Summary
To launch a 4kg load to a height of at least 3 meters using a push out solenoid, you need to calculate the required force in Newtons. The force must overcome both gravity and provide enough acceleration to reach the desired height. Additional details, such as the distance over which the solenoid can act and the power source specifications, are crucial for accurate calculations. Understanding the method involves applying physics principles like energy conservation and kinematics. Providing this information will help in determining the best solenoid for your needs.

I want to purchase a push out solenoid for throwing stuff into air and need help deciding the best one...
I want to push 4kg of load into air at 90degress starting from rest to a height of atleast 3 metres.
How much force(in Newtons ) would that need ?
Also if you could explain the method you used to calculate this ?
Thanks :)

Hi MadaraUchiha! http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/5725/red5e5etimes5e5e45e5e25.gif

I can't give much help with this, but I think you should provide a little more information to assist someone who may be able to help. Over what distance can the solenoid be in contact with the object while it accelerates it? Also, what high current power source do you have available to power the solenoid?

Is this a student project on which you will be graded as part of your college assessment?

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...
