    Where does the plane exist in this parallel axis theorem?

    ##I_{AB} = I_{GXX} + A.(y^{2})## Same applies to CD; ##I_{CD} = I_{GYY} + A.(x^{2})## In the above statement, "any axis in its plane" where does the plane exist in this sketch?

    What is the significance of neglecting the encircled sides in Ampere's law?

    This is a very basic issue but really important as well. The rectangular loop has length ##l## and width ##h##. I have seen the argument of neglecting the encircled sides of the loop because ##h << 1## while using Ampere's law to calculate the magnetic field flowing over a plane. I find this...

    Inclined Plane Problem with Kinetic Friction

    I tried to find the force of friction using the the coefficient of kinetic friction with the equation F=nukmgcos Ѳ. Then I made the force of friction equal to the force of pull. I don't know what I'm doing wrong as I'm getting the wrong answer. I have attached a picture of my work.

    How does trigonometry help determine the gravity component on an inclined plane?

    Since gravity is acting downward, I found the gravity component parallel to the plane, which was g/sin60. I substituted g/sin60 for g into that equation and got D, but the answer should be C.

    Why the projection of S on the xy plane cannot be used?

    I don't understand why we could not use the 1/4 of the circle lying on the xy plane as R. In the exercise it is not explained. The idea would be taking the arc length. I know it is not easier than making your projection on the xz plane, but just wondering if this is possible. I guess it is not...
