... (b) Now we want to figure out how fast we’d need to rotate it around in order for it to rotate to the top. In this case, it still has the same kinetic energy, for some ω, KE = mR2 ω 2 . Now it has to get to the top, changing its height by R, so p that it’s final potential energy is P E = mgR. Solvin ...

A Primer on Dimensions and Units
... Did you notice that, in every example above, we had to multiply the weight we calculated by a “conversion factor” to make the units come out right? Well, what some people do is just employ a factor, called gc , directly in the equation they are using. For example, Newton’s second law could be writte ...

... A uniform gangplank PQ of a ferry smoothly hinged at end P initially rests horizontally on the pier. The gangplank has mass M and length 2 m. It is raised by a man on the ferry using a light rope passing a smooth fixed light pulley and connecting to R on the gangplank as shown. R is 1.5 m from end P ...

... Applied forces: Forces that are external to the system. These forces can take away or add energy to the system. So the mechanical energy of the system is no longer conserved. If you were to carry around a ball, the force you apply to the ball is external to the system of ball and the Earth. Therefor ...
