    Elimination Method
AI Thread Summary
To solve for v0 using the equations A0*v0=Av and v^2=v0^2+2gh, one can eliminate v through substitution. The derived solution is v0=[2gh*A^2/(A0^2-A^2)]^1/2. The process involves straightforward algebraic manipulation. The discussion concludes with the user expressing gratitude for the assistance received.

It should be straightforward algebra. Eliminate v from one of your equations using a substitution from the other...
 
got it now... thank you
 
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'
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...
