SOS -- Questions about mass, acceleration and velocity

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a request for help with understanding the relationships between force, momentum, angular momentum, kinetic energy, potential energy, mass, acceleration, and velocity. The original poster expresses frustration with the topic, indicating a lack of confidence in their scientific abilities. Respondents emphasize the importance of demonstrating prior attempts at solving the problem before receiving assistance. They suggest starting with fundamental equations, such as F=ma, to explore the connections between these concepts. The thread is temporarily closed for moderation, highlighting the need for adherence to forum guidelines.

Homework Statement
how force, momentum, Angular momentum, kinetic and potential energy are linked with respect to mass, acceleration and velocity
Relevant Equations
N/A
Please some one help! I am about to go stir crazy. I am really struggling to answer a the following question...describe how force, momentum, Angular momentum, kinetic and potential energy are linked with respect to mass, acceleration and velocity.

Its probably really easy but science is not my strong point so please do not judge me. Thank you in advance for any help.

According to the homework guidelines you need to show us your best attempt at solving a problem yourself.

What do you know about these quantities? Have they been covered in your physics course?
 
I would suggest starting by writing out mathematical equivalents of the various terms you are asking about. Low hanging fruit is F=ma. Define all the questions in terms of m, a, and V and see where you get to.

Welcome to PF.

As has been mentioned, you need to show your efforts to work on the problem before we can provide tutorial help. Please start a new thread in this forum and show your best efforts to start listing the relationships that you are asking about. Thank you; this thread will stay closed.
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
