Help me please!

please help my ap class just started on laws of motion and I am having problems with this question could some one please walk me through it
]
a block is given an intial speed of 3.0 m/s up the 22.0 degree plane how far up the plane will it go? B0 how much time elapses before it returns to its starting point ignore friction.

thankyou so much!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Try drawing a free body diagram. What does it mean when the block comes to rest? If there is no friction, what other forces could be acting on the block to slow it down? Also remember there are two times here, one for the trip up and one for the trip down.
 

Thread 'Initial conditions for orbits around a wormhole'

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...

Thread 'Help to convert units of a simple formula'

The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
