Sir Isaac Newton contest solutions 2007

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the search for solutions to the Sir Isaac Newton contest from 2007, as the available resources only provide solutions for 2008. Participants express frustration over the lack of access to the 2007 solutions, which are needed for a physics club working on those specific questions. One user mentions that solutions can be purchased from Waterloo for a small fee. The conversation also includes an invitation to join the physics club, which meets weekly. Overall, the thread highlights the difficulty in finding older contest solutions and the collaborative nature of the physics club.

Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.

Does anyone know where to get the Sir Isaac Newton contest solutions 2007? The site has solutions for 2008, but not of previous years.

Thanks.

You can buy it from Waterloo. (3-5$ per year I think) I don't know anyweb site that has the solutions. Why do you need it?
 
My physics club is doing the questions from the 2007 contest, but we don't have the solutions.

It's strange because they have solutions for the 2008 ones right now.

They only show it for one year. 2008 was last years contest. Can I join your physics club??
 
Hrm.. I guess no one has a copy of it then.

Sure u can join. It's every tuesday at lunch in room 112.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

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 hanged mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged 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...
