    In question 2a, are you supposed to square the radius.

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  2 года назад +1

      Good catch Peseti, it is meant to be 0.2^2. Seems I remembered to square it on the calculator however, so the numbers are otherwise correct.

    hey, for question 3d why do we use v=-Awsinwt and not v=Awcoswt? i thought that because she swings from end A that would be starting at the max and so would be the cos function? terrific videos btw :-)

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  19 дней назад

      Thanks Tree Stump! For starting at the maximum we use the cos function for the displacement (y=Acosθ), but the sin function for the velocity (v=Aωsinθ). Hope that helps.

    Hey Mr. Whibley, huge fan. Whats the best way to figure out where to put our angle in question 1c?

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  Год назад +2

      Cheers Daniel! The angle that the plane is banked by is the angle between the lift force and the vertical axis (the gravitational force points downwards along this axis).

      ⁠​⁠@@MrWhibleyPhysicsHi! Sorry I don’t understand :( wouldnt Fc be between the two forces? How did you know it went between Fg and Fl

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  10 дней назад +1

      @@Asher137 Hi Ash, good question. You're correct that Fc would be between the two forces however, Fc is not a force itself, it's a role that other forces play. In this case it is provided by the horizontal component of the lift force.
      To better imagine where to put the 35° angle, I suggest drawing the forces for a plane that isn't banked. In this case the angle of banking is zero, as is the angle between the lift and gravitational force (they will point opposite to each other). As you increase the banking angle, notice that the angle between the lift and gravitational force will increase by the same amount, because these angles are the same. Hope that helps!

    hey mate, your videos are really helpful. in Q3d, why did you do v= awsin(pi - 0.841), rather than v =awsin(0.841)?

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  10 месяцев назад

      Cheers Liam!
      θ is the total angle rotated through.
      The total angle between A and B is π (180°).
      From our point in question the angle to B is φ.
      This means that the total angle θ is equal to π - φ.
      Hope that helps.

      Hi NinjaPirate, one set of equations is for the system starting at y=0 and the other y=A. See my note video here: ruclips.net/video/BYjNjme4LtQ/видео.html

    For question 1b, is the banked example the second picture? Also what is a horizontal life component in a centripetal force?

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  Год назад +1

      Hi Ninja Pirate. Correct, the banked example is depicted in the second picture.
      When the plane is banked the lift force is no longer entirely vertical, part of it now points horizontally. This is what we're calling the horizontal lift component. It is what is providing the centripetal force causing the plane to move in a circle. Hope that helps!

    In question 3c would this be correct if I said this: The acceleration is proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position, and The acceleration acts towards the equillibrium position? Would this way be correct or do I have to talk about the restoring force?

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  Год назад

      Great question. While your statement is correct, the graph is of specifically the restoring force and the assessment schedule is worded only in terms of the restoring force.
      For that reason I'm not 100% sure the markers would give you the full mark for only talking in terms of the acceleration.

    In question 3b when Selena stands up where is her COM? Also how does the COM reduce the length of the pendulum?

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  Год назад +2

      Because she stands and shifts her mass upwards, her centre of mass moves upwards. The length of a pendulum is specifically defined as being from the pivot to centre of mass, so by definition it has shortened.

    For question 1d, why did you add 1.28x10^4 with 6.37x10^6 as the radius

    • @MrWhibleyPhysics
      @MrWhibleyPhysics  Год назад

      The radius is the distance between the plane centre and the earth centre.
      To find this distance we need to add the distance between the earth centre and the earth surface to the distance between the earth surface and the plane centre.

      Not quite as sin and cos are pi/2 apart, not pi. To use cos you would need to subtract pi/2 from the angle like this www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=-1.5*1.8cos%28pi-0.841-pi%2F2%29
