when an object is rotating in a circle and the only force is acting on it is friction how is force of friction vector pointing towards the circle because an object in circular motion is traveling in that direction, it's accelerating towards the center of the circle, but fr...

How am I doing this problem wrong On a strange, airless planet, a ball is thrown downward from a height of 17 m. The ball initally travels at 15 m/s. If the ball hits the ground in 1 s, what is this planet's gravitational acceleration? by definition of acceleration a = (v ...

Ok work... work = net force parallel to displacement lets say something was pushed up a ramp at a constant velocity and you were asked how much work was done by pushing the block well the forces parellel to the displacement is the x component of gravity friction opposing motio...

physics egg drop
What is the best idea for an egg drop project. it has to survive a 5 meter drope without craking or breaking open.(grade A egg wich is a bog egg). The desinge or idea has to be able to be opened and have the egg in hand within 10 sec, so packing it into boxes over and over aga...

Physics
I agree with this and see were it comes from net force = (delta p)/t so momentum is conserved when net force equals zero... net force = (delta p)/t 0 = (delta p)/t however the following is not true 0 = (delta p)/t = P - Po were p is momentum and Po is used to indicate inital a...

Physics
momentum equals = mass (velocity) yet for problems I end up using this P = m (delta v) what allows us to simply put the delta infront of the v to find the momentum?

Physics
I keep on getting the wrong answer I don't know if there is even static friciton in this problem in the begining before the rope snaps or not and if so if it must be equal to the Mu they give because there is only one but you can't have the same values for both coffeci...

I'm not sure how to do this problem A .40 kg ball is thrown with a speed of 10 s^-1 m at an angle of 30 degrees. (a) What is its speed at its highest point, and (b) how high doe it go? (Use conservation of energy.)

Physics
I'm not sure how to do this problem A 145-g baseball is droppexc from a tree 12.0 m above the ground. (a) Wtih what speed would it hit the ground if air resistance could be ignored? (b) If it actually hits the ground with a speed of 8.00 s^-1 m, what is the average force o...
