I have answered a question before which is thecomponent of the weight of M that is directed along the arc (Farc) of the motion of M which I got mg sin Ө. But how do I prove that the F arc that I got which is mg sin Ө is Farc =−??/L (x)
Hi, I have one more follow-up question regarding a similar problem where I need to find the height: In a rollercoaster ride a passenger car at the top of the first hill is travelling at 3.5 m/s. The carthen descends on rails to the bottom of the slope and then goes up the second hill where the speed is 10 m/s. Find the difference in height between the first and second hill. (Result 4.47m) Attached is the formula I tried to use, however, I get a different result so I am definitely doing something wrong. Online I didn't find a similar problem so I am asking here as a last chance. Can you help?
How would I begin to solve this problem? In Example 2.6, we considered a simple model for a rocket launched from the surface of the Earth. A better expression for a rocket's position measured from the center of the Earth is given by y(t) = (RE3/2 + 3*(g/2)1/2 REt)2/3 where RE is the radius of the Earth (6.38 ✕ 106 m) and g is the constant acceleration of an object in free fall near the Earth's surface (9.81 m/s2). (a) Derive expressions for vy(t) and ay(t). (Use the following as necessary: g, RE, and t. Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only.)
An ant crawls on the surface of a ball of radius b in such a manner that the ant's motion is given in spherical coordinates by the equations r = b; phi = omega*t; theta = pi/2 * [1 + 1/4 * cos(400t)] Find the speed of the ant as a function of the time t. What sort of path is represented? by the above equations ?

1/2 A rocket is launched following the path h2 and h is the vertical distance (height) the rocket has traveled from the launch pad. The vertical speed of the rocket is clocked at 12 mi/sec at a height of 1 mile. Simultaneously, it is noted that the vessel had drifted 5 miles from being directly above the launch pad. Find the horizontal speed of the rocket. 64(3r +1)2 where a is the horizontal distance

A projectile is launched towards a hill that is d=252m away. The launch angle is θ=51.7∘ above the horizontal with an initial speed of v0=71.5m/sv0=71.5m/s. The hill can be approximated as a plane sloped at φ=27.1∘. Neglect air resistance. 1. Write an equation for y as a function of x, d, and φ for the line that defines the slope of the hill. 2. Write an equation for y as a function of x, g, v0, and θ of the trajectory of the projectile. 3. What is the x coordinate, in meters, of the landing spot of the projectile?
Hello, Can I please have help regarding this problem ? Thanks. Suppose that the clock on our lecture room has a minute-hand length of 10 cm.(Use a coordinate system with the origin at center of clock and +x axis along the3PM direction and the +y direction along the 12PM direction). From the 12 to 8mark, for the tip of the minute hand:a) Sketch a vector diagram labeling ri, rf, Δr, Vi, Vf, and ΔV.b) Calculate the displacement vector in unit-vector notation.c) Calculate the average velocity vector in unit-vector notation.d) Calculate the average acceleration vector in unit-vector notation.e) Calculate magnitude and direction of the average acceleration vector.f) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the total acceleration of the tip ofthe minute hand at the 6 mark.
2.16* A golfer hits his ball with speed v at an angle & above the horizontal ground. Assuming that the angle is fixed and that air resistance can be neglected, what is the minimum speed vä(min) for which the ball will clear a wall of height h, a distance d away? Your solution should get into trouble if the angle is such that tan
