I have been working on a theoretical framework that draws on concepts from conformal field theory (CFT) to describe fluid dynamics and could potentially be well suited for describing certain turbul...
Lets say we have a mass connected to a spring.Assuming not any friction the ODE which describes the system is $m\frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}} = -kx$ We can set 2 Dirichlet boundary conditions $x(0)=0$ an...
The title is a framing for a theoretical question; I'm not asking for practical advice. A friend was recently in this situation and my attempts to apply what I remember of a couple semesters of co...
$$\sum_i F_i \cdot \delta r_i$$ is virtual work when internal force is $0$. For that reason, $$\sum_i F_i \cdot \delta r_i = 0$$ Here internal force stands for what? When a object's displacement ...
I know that equation for parallel resistance is $$\frac{1}{r_{tot}}=\sum_i \frac{1}{r_i}$$ But i wonder to see equation of series spring constant. If we add multiple spring in series. Then their ...
Momentum is proportional to an object's velocity, and kinetic energy is proportional to the square of its velocity $\dfrac{mv^2}{2}$. It's pretty intuitive that if object B is going twice as fast a...
Since, there's no book category currently so, I am asking it here. And, It can be moved to that category later. I want to start learning now so, I don't want to wait. Which book is best for Clas...
A stuntman jumped from $1.25 \ \text{m}$ height and, landed at distance $10 \ \text{m}$. Find velocity when he jumped. (Take $\text{g}=10 \ ms^{-2}$) I had solved it following way. $$h=\fra...
Mass M1 is held on a plane with inclination angle θ, and mass M2 hangs over the side. The two masses are connected by a massless string which runs over a massless pulley (see Fig. 3.1). The c...
Mass of a timber is $20 \ g$. And, density of that timber is $0.27 \ g/cc$. That timber was bind to a metallic materials and, it was released to $0.970 \ g/cc$ water. How much the wood was submer...
I was reading "Introduction to classical Mechanics" by David Morin. In that book they wrote that The third law says we will never find a particle accelerating unless there’s some other particle ...
We have place a charged particle of 2C with mass 2kg, 1mm above a current-carrying wire of 1A.The charged particle has an initial velocity of 100m/s The magnetic field of the wire for simplicity w...
I stumbled these pictures on Quora, and I'm assuming they were real. Wouldn't the supporter (person whom gun is mounted on) suffer hearing loss? Wouldn't the barrel burn his ear? I'm assu...
Is this advice correct? Are they alluding to Freezing Point Depression? Adding salt to tap water lowers the Crystalloid's freezing point. Pour 3 tbsp (51 g) of salt into each of your 3 plast...
I have a question about the discussion of constrained Lagrangian systems in the book Mathematical Aspects of Classical and Celestial Mechanics by Arnold et al. (section 1.2.5). The Lagrangian syst...
