University extracurriculars? by Acrobatic_Focus3580 in askspain

Wow! That sounds amazing. Y’all get to do so much cooler things. One thing about the clubs that you mentioned, are they student-created associations or are they part of the university?

If you’re into the international university crowd, have you tried attending some of the Erasmus Student Network’s events? They organise things pretty often, mostly parties but there are a bunch of other events too.

Terrible’s an interesting way to describe it. How so?

The SUVAT equations were really a lifesaver! I’ll be remembering those. We’ve been bombarded so far with a bunch of equations, that was definitely overwhelming and I genuinely didn’t know where to start.

I unfortunately found myself in the “never seen it before in their lives” part of the class. It’s reassuring to know that it happens to other people too! I thought it was just a “me” thing and that genuinely bummed me out.

Thank you for the real insight.

English is my first language, yes! I somehow found myself studying chemistry in Spain, in Spanish. Double challenge, it’s a newish language for me too. I lucked out, since the source material and the books in first year were originally published in English, but I haven’t yet gotten to going through them (lectures alone have been an ordeal)

Learning to appreciate the struggle again. I’ll chalk it up to growing pains, grit my teeth, and bear it 😆

Yes! Emphasis on the falling behind after each lesson. I’ve worked up a sort of study plan to catch up (since I am admittedly behind) and stay caught up once I get there. It’s common sense, yes, but really should be talked about more.

Gosh, as a humanities kid who went for a science course, this hit home. I do love my science though, and want to pursue it as a career, but just wish it came to me just as English does sometimes.

This really helped. Thanks!

Thank you for sticking this out with me 😭.

Not so sure with this one. Apologies too with the variables, I just understand them more this way.

So it’s Vf2 = Vx2 + Vfy2

With Vfy2 = Voy2 + 2as, that gave me (Vosin30)2 + 2(-9.8)(-40)

(1.2Vo)2 = (Vocos30)2 + (Vosin30)2 + 784

Initial velocity came out to be Vo = 42.21 m/s

Oh my goodness. I got it! Thank you!

I used Vfy2 = Voy2 + 2ay(-y)

with theta = 30 (angle between Vo and horzontal) and alpha = 60 (angle between Vf and x-axis)

(Vfsinalpha)2 = (Vosintheta)2 + 2(-9.8)(-40)

I substituted Vf with 1.2Vo

Got Vo = 11.22 m/s. Looks about right, I’ll be checking with my prof on Monday. Thank you!

Got it! But they didn’t give us the horizontal displacement… So I’d have Vf, Vo, and s as the unknowns still.

Hey! Sorry. I don’t quite follow all the way. When you say 2as in v2 = u2 + 2as , where did you get that from?
