I was also thinking about maybe majoring in Physics still, but taking two minors over one major: a minor in astronomy and a minor in math. I mainly want to take courses related to my program because I feel there will be more opportunities for jobs that way, but I really like Psychology. It also...
In the school I go to you have three options for a BsC degree:
-1 specialist program
-2 majors
-1 major and 2 minors
Physics and Psychology are the subjects I enjoy the most, but I often hear they are unrelated to each other (like putting a physical science and a life science together I...
V=Vo √1-(x^2/a^2)
X is the distance of the spring's stretch, but how would you rearrange the equation if you are looking for Amplitude? They both use the same units (meters) as far as I am concerned. Help would be appreciated, thanks; I am still a beginner with Physics.
I need some ideas for an assignment in Physics: I am to determine an experimental protcol which will allow me to determine if statistical differences occur in the data that I will collect. I am collecting data to find the reaction time of two subjects.
For example, one student a few years ago...
Homework Statement
For which value(s) of x is each expression not defined?
Homework Equations
x^2+3x-6 divided by x^2-x-12
The Attempt at a Solution
The answer that was given turned out to be:
x^2+3x-6 divided by (-4)(x+3)
Restrictions: x ≠ 4,-3...
Yeah, I messed up the equation:
-1=m(-3)^3+g(-3)^2-(-3)+3
-1=-27m+9g+3+3
collect like terms:
-7=-27m+9g
-1=(-27/7)n - (-9/7)g
As you can see I end up with some strange numbers. I never got the correct answer with them so I assume they're wrong. And yet, there's no possible way I can get a...

The 4m is going up the ramp, while the height is 1.2 m. Its hard to describe because I can't draw the picture here.
Edit: Thanks Nathaneal for the quick response, and it was correct! You saved me, thank you very much.
Homework Statement
Objects A (2.0 kg), B (1.0 kg), and C (1.0 kg) are pushed up a ramp, which is 4.0 m and 1.2 m high. The applied forces are parallel to the ramp with magnitudes of 9.8 N on A, 4.9 N on B, and 3.1 N on C.
