AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a problem involving a rolling cylinder that appears to be dragging a rod with a plate experiencing friction. Participants express the need for a detailed description of the problem rather than assumptions. There is confusion regarding the meaning of labeled arrows in the diagram, particularly the curvy arrows labeled ##\beta## and ##\omega##. A torque equation is mentioned, but its derivation is unclear without additional context. Clarity on these points is essential for a proper understanding of the mechanics involved.

Please describe the problem in detail not just part of the proffered solution. What is going on here? It looks like you have a rolling cylinder that is dragging a rod at the end of which is a plate with friction. However, this is only a guess and we do not like guessing if it can be avoided.
Furthermore, what do all these labeled arrows represent, especially the curvy arrows labeled ##\beta## and ##\omega##? Again, we do not like guessing.
That said, yes, the first equation looks like a torque equation. Where it comes from depends on details that we do not have.

Here is what I tried
This question was actually asked in one of our engineering entrances.
The answer was 1D.
My teachers say that we have to use μₘ/fₘ to get to this answer. I cannot understand why. I'll be really glad if you could tell me the exact definition of power (numerically) that works in all scenarios.
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance)
My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0
The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct.
(i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface
(ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not?
(iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
