Ok no problem I solved it so no worries
Apr 28, 2024 05:41
So I just solely focus on x direction only

I got it has got acceleration in y direction but it has been asked to find maximum acceleration and minimum applied on wedge in x direction specifically
Apr 28, 2024 05:31
But when I apply the same logic to friction question it's wrong and in solution it has assumed no acceleration in y direction
Apr 28, 2024 05:30
Then I differentiated it twice and a-x(double dot)=y double dot
Apr 28, 2024 05:29
x-X=h-y
Apr 28, 2024 05:29
Then I subtracted x-X/h-y = tan45
Apr 28, 2024 05:28
I solved it by using the constraint relation of acceleration by measuring distance to x till block of mass m and X till wedge the in y direction I took total height of were h and the height till block is kept y

Ok wail I'll send the link
Apr 28, 2024 05:21
Does it have to do something with friction
Apr 28, 2024 05:20
The surface was smooth
Apr 28, 2024 05:20
It essentially is the same question but had no friction
Apr 28, 2024 05:20
No I mean a question from the previous chapter not this one
Apr 28, 2024 05:19
How come in y acceleration is zero in this question while the previous one had no friction but it had assumed the acceleration in y direction
Apr 28, 2024 05:18
And they didn't use constraints to solve it
Apr 28, 2024 05:18
When I am applying the same concept here the solution says acceleration in y direction is zero
Apr 28, 2024 05:17
By assuming acceleration in X and in both y direction
Apr 28, 2024 05:17
It had no friction
Apr 28, 2024 05:17
I solved it using constraints
Apr 28, 2024 05:16
In a similar question in the previous chapter of my book this was the same type of question and
Apr 28, 2024 05:16
My doubt is not solving it but something else
Apr 28, 2024 05:16
Yes
Apr 28, 2024 05:15
Wait I'll send a clear link
Apr 28, 2024 05:14
Apr 28, 2024 05:10
Ok I'll try
Apr 28, 2024 05:09
In here there is no option
Apr 28, 2024 05:09
How do I post a picture of a question
Apr 28, 2024 05:08
Can you help me understanding a question
Apr 28, 2024 05:08
Hi:)

You're goat
Apr 27, 2024 07:47
I got it thanks
Apr 27, 2024 07:47
Yes
Apr 27, 2024 07:45
In answer
Apr 27, 2024 07:45
Yes there are two solution that is 2f and 4f are values of d
Apr 27, 2024 07:44
yeah you're right
Apr 27, 2024 07:43
Yes
Apr 27, 2024 07:42
Ok
Apr 27, 2024 07:41
Wait then we don't get another reflection if the image itself is virtual
Apr 27, 2024 07:41
If I keep it between the pole and focus I get virtual image
Apr 27, 2024 07:41
Which is not allowed
Apr 27, 2024 07:41
Yes I do get another reflection if I keep it at centre of curvature
Apr 27, 2024 07:40
At the case where it does not gets reflected to another mirror
Apr 27, 2024 07:39
By only one image I think only one reflection
Apr 27, 2024 07:37
I think I should let image be formed at centre of curvature

Is there any modern physics book which is not just plug the numbers and get the answer( I have books like Arthur beiser and paul tipler but they just throw formulas and in example number that have to be plugged and get the answer)
Apr 27, 2024 07:36
Ok
