thanks for your help I see it now! Think I'm getting a little tired



I'm glad you feel so comfortable doing this exam that you feel like you need to talk down at others. What's 'obvious' to you might not be obvious to other people so sit down please. This is a study help thread not a study brag thread.


amen
Hey guys does anyone know how to calculate the time period for this:
January 2011



The correct answer is B but my calculations can never get that answer.
Apparently we are supposed to use ω2r = 9.81

Thanks :smile:

for SHM (the left one), acceleration always acts towards equilibrium and for circular motion, acceleration acts towards the centre (centripetal acceleration). At the initial time therefore, acceleration for the mass-spring system is downwards and the particle in circular motion is upwards because there's where the centre is. After half an oscillation, the particle in circular motion will be at the top and the mass on the spring will be at the bottom so opposite accelerations. Hope this helps


Thank you that explanation was great but I realised I read the question wrong :colonhash: I read it as the mass was at its lowest point for some reason??? Which is why I was confused, but you explained it great anyway! :smile:
Can anyone please help me with question's 19, 20 & 21 on the June 14 paper. Thanks

Hi.

Basically we need to find momentum which is mass x velocity.

We can find mass as we have density and volume.

Then we have the Area. We can use to find the length of the pipe to as A X L = V

The length gives use the speed of the water coming out.

Hence, v * m gives us the answer.

Volume is actually just 2x10^-4. You get a hint from the units, its m^3 PER SECOND. and the answer they want is per second


I was being dumber. I kept getting 0.056 which is the right answer but for some reason I convinced myself 0.2 was the answer. Sorry to have wasted your time haha! my brain is just mush

mg=mw²r
g=w²r
T²/4π²=r/g
T=√(4π²r/g)
Anybody know of any good videos for magnetic fields?
What are the unit for impulse and change in momentum

If objects are to appear weightless then their centripetal force is their weight, plug into formula and out pops ur answer

just did it calc and got 1.4
9.81 divided by radius of earth
square root ans
ω= 2 pi / T
2pi / ans = T in seconds
Convert to hours


Cheers 👍

Edit: Vid was just what I needed. Repped.
