    It's so simple when you explain it; breaking it down into bit size chunks really helps my old brain. Sincere thanks

    Hi,
    I love this video. I was just curious how do you know particle Q would hit the pulley but not simply stay in middle air ?
    Many thanks.

    Why is the acceleration for Q ‘-g’ and not -3/7g?

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  Před 4 lety +10

      The string had now gone slack, no tension so it was if you like disconnected from Q and now moving freely under gravity, so acceleration = -g. I hope that makes sense.

  • @cestmoi-8964
    @cestmoi-8964 Před 8 lety

    Hi, why does the particle move beyond the first blue line ? Is this is maximum height reached by the particle under free gravity after the other particle has hit the ground? So, when the particle moves back down to the blue line, is that when the string becomes taut again? Thank you.

    Hi sir, Thanks a lot for all your videos! I have literally watched every video in your mei playlist on c1234, s12, m12, and fp12. And theyve literally saved my life.LOL! Anyway i was wondering why does the speed that p hits the ground at equals the speed that q rises??? I would really appreciate if you answer.

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  Před 8 lety +2

      +Mohammed D It is because they are connected by a non elastic string. They must always travel at the same speed whilst connected to a taut string.

    • @mohammedd2483
      @mohammedd2483 Před 8 lety

      Makes sense. i guess that is why they keep the case where the string is elastic till mechanics 3 since its harder

  • @TheClearSummer
    @TheClearSummer Před 6 lety +3

    Surely the string won’t go slack and Q won’t rise further if it’s supposed to be ‘inextensible’?

    • @tomgreen604
      @tomgreen604 Před 6 lety +1

      The Clear Summer inextensible initially when the particles are at rest

  • @tanya-uj4yq

    Why are the speeds Vp and Uq the same? I though the speeds on both sides of pulleys are always different?

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  Před 4 lety

      The speeds are the same but the velocities are different. Velocity is a vector quantity with speed as it's magnitude.

  • @gabeross9986
    @gabeross9986 Před 5 lety +1

    at around 12:45, why does one consider the acceleration to be '-g' and ignore the previous value of acceleration of the particles which was 3/7(g) or 4.2 m/s^2?

    • @gabeross9986
      @gabeross9986 Před 5 lety

      Is it just because it's the acceleration due to gravity as it's downwards?

    I am an older guy with a physics background doing the Alevels for college. Would it qualify as a full mark solution in the exam answering this problem using Energy Conservation Theorem ? @ExamSolutions

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  Před 5 lety

      I would have thought so unless the exam board specifically asked for a non energy solution.

  • @ish2588

    hi,
    i was wondering why the 7m was not added to the three?, dosnt it ask for the greatest height after it hits the ground? so would it not be 10m?
    please help thanks

    • @ExamSolutions_Maths
      @ExamSolutions_Maths  Před 9 lety

      Ishak Ussen It says "Find the height that Q rises after P hits the ground" This is how much further does Q rise at the point when P hits the ground. Not how high is Q above the ground.

    • @ish2588
      @ish2588 Před 9 lety +1

      ExamSolutions oh right, i see. they are quite confusing when it comes to that part of the question. i was wondering if there were any hints to spot the diffrence? thanks

  • @BigFatSmellyCheese
    @BigFatSmellyCheese Před 10 lety +1

    When considering Q, why is the initial velocity the same as the final velocity of P? (root6g)
    Thanks

    • @WiseFoolTrades
      @WiseFoolTrades Před 9 lety +1

      Ben Irwin Because the acceleration of the two particles are the same due to an inextensible string being used. If you do the SUVAT for particle Q, you'll get the same answer.

  • @tamircohen1512
    @tamircohen1512 Před 5 lety +1

    My guess before watching the video:
    The reason the particle reaches a "maximum height" rather than stopping is because it had been accelerating upwards until the moment the larger mass hits the ground. The instant the large mass hits the ground, the smaller particle maintains its velocity upwards (Newtons 1st Law) and beings decelerate because a force equal to -gm is acting on it. Once the vertical velocity of the particle decreases 0 m/s, it has reached its maximum height.
    If we can find the upwards accelerating of the particle and we know the height of the system above the ground, we can use suvat to find the velocity of the particle the moment the larger particle hits the ground. Then we can look only at the smaller particle and treat it as a regular suvat problem with g as the downward acceleration and the previously found maximum velocity as the initial velocity. We can set the final velocity to equal 0 and solve for the displacement using suvat.
    There might be an easier way but this is how I would do it having never seen a problem like this before.
