Derive I = nAVe


A block of ice slides down the full height from one side of a 1m high bowl and up the other side. Assuming frictionless motion and taking g as 9.81ms-2, find the speed of the block at the bottom of the bowl and the height it reaches on the the other side.


What is the difference between potential energy and potential?


A 4 metre long bar rotates freely around a central pivot. 3 forces act upon it: 7N down, 2m to the left of the pivot; 8N up, 1m to the left of the pivot; 4N up, 1m to the right of the pivot. Apply one additional force to place the bar in equilibrium.
