A Car of mass 1000kg applies a constant 200N breaking force over a distance of 30m and comes to a complete stop. How fast was the car going the instant the brakes were engaged.

Before we start we should have some idea of the route of our solution. We should observe that force, distance and work have a relation and that mass, velocity and work have a relation. So we should calcul...

There is a train A. On the roof of A is another frictionless train B of mass Mb. A mass Mc hangs off the front of A and is attached to the front of B by rope and frictionless pulley. How fast should A accelerate so that B wont fall off the roof of A.

You must carefully draw a diagram. The key to this question is to find from what perspective you should view it. The easiest way is to see that B wants to accelerate due to the weight of C. This is unaffe...

Find the indefinite integral tan(5x)tan(3x)tan(2x)

Noticing that tan(5x) = tan(3x+2x) we use the tan compound angle formula to find tan(5x) = (tan(2x)+tan(3x))/(1-tan(2x)tan(3x)) and thus tan(5x)tan(3x)tan(2x) = tan(5x)-tan(3x)-tan(2x). From then we can i...
