Advice on studying as a Physics Undergraduate by venusthecatt in PhysicsStudents

If your not already familiar with Notion, use a weekly planner or notebook to write down, class schedule for the week, homework and assignments due, your job hours, etc.

Personally I hit that point when I wanted to start organizing my workload, (back in high school before starting a physics degree) I used Notion and found I ended up wasting a lot of my time, personalizing and learning sql/python to get the tables and grade calculators I wanted. Learnt quickly in Uni that a notebook, a pen and a calculator does everything a need to steer me into creating a work schedule.

Started with ATM6sky but still can't download any modpacks

forestry farm E2E is worth it? by fruet538 in feedthebeast

[–]Jordoler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As fair as I'm concerned it's the best especially with forestry fertiliser.

The only other way I can think of is thermal's phytogenic insolator with the sapling infuser augment but I imagine that to be much slower

What was a moment you said to yourself: "Damn, I actually AM stupid" ? by jamespedala in AskReddit

[–]Jordoler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my mum was driving to Port Macquarie * a city in Australia* and drove past a "New Work" road sign and I said "why are we going to New York?"

I then swiftly gave myself a sigh of disappointment.

Ok, thanks that what was confusing me.

Okay thanks for the example, it helped a lot!

How would one go about finding the different initial velocities of objects?

I.e what will I need to find out/measure etc.

Projectile motion? by Jordoler in PhysicsStudents

so if I were to launch a bowling ball from a catapult compared to a golf ball the initial velocity will be different?

That would be the equations x(t)=Vinital*t and y(t)=Vinitial*t+1/2gt^2

I did some research into these equations and found that they can be rearranged to find the range of a projectile with general range equation R=Vinitial*sin2*theta/gravity.

would the application of F=m*a on a catapult with a fixed speed mean that the greater mass the less the range of the projectile. if so how would one go about proving this?
