    Rotational Energy and Linear Momentum Problem

    Oh shoot, that's obvious. I don't know why when I remembered to take into account rotational kinetic energy I dropped off translational kinetic energy. Thank you.

    Rotational Energy and Linear Momentum Problem

    Homework Statement In the figure here, a small, solid, uniform ball is to be shot from point P so that it rolls smoothly along a horizontal path, up along a ramp, and onto a plateau. Then it leaves the plateau horizontally to land on a game board, at a horizontal distance d from the right edge...

    Should I Accept My CSU Fullerton Acceptance for Physics Undergrad?

    Yeah. I only did it because I wasn't aware that one course I took during my first semester wasn't transferable. I thought I had 62 transferable units when I applied.

    Should I Accept My CSU Fullerton Acceptance for Physics Undergrad?

    Yeah, in other circumstances I would have just followed that logic. The only reason I'm questioning it was because trying to transfer with only 58 units immediately disqualifies me from the majority of institutions despite my academic standing. So, I was wondering if it would be better to...

    Should I Accept My CSU Fullerton Acceptance for Physics Undergrad?

    I suppose. I'm just worried about the prospects about getting into a good graduate school with a BS from a CSU. My chances of getting into a UC don't seem like the lowest either. My GPA is currently about a 3.5, with it increasing every semester and I can fulfill TAG agreements. The only reason...

    Should I Accept My CSU Fullerton Acceptance for Physics Undergrad?

    I've been accepted to Cal State University Fullerton, but I don't know if I should accept it as that's really the only school I got into. Alternatively I could wait another year and apply to UCs seeing as I do have another two semesters of classes I can take at a CC. Which would be the best...

    Limit of Lim h->0 ((2+h^2) - 8)/h

    I saw my professor solve for the limit of ((2+h)2 - 8)/h as h approaches 0 and it was defined, but for the life of me I can't remember how. Everyone I have asked can't seem to figure it out either, so I was hoping someone here could explain.

    What causes metals to cold weld in a vacuum?

    I read that some metals, if sufficiently smooth, will become become cold welded upon contact in a vacuum. What process causes this?

    Why isn't 80 mod (-11) equal to 3?

    Can someone please explain why 80 mod (-11) is -8…? Why isn’t it 3? b = aq + r 80 = (-11)q + r 80 = (-11)(-7) + 3 Thus 80 mod (-11) = 3..
