when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as
T=mv²/r
where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple
v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.
clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.
at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks
Speed = distance / time
S= 40 000m / 5400s
S= 7.41m/s
Answer:
a.Distance = 150 m
b. Displacement = 50 m
Time lapsed = 5 seconds
Explanation:
a. Distance is the change in the position of an object.
The distance covered by the car = 100 + 50
= 150 m
b. Since displacement is a vector quantity,
Displacement of the car = 100 - 50
= 50 m due east
c. Time elapsed is the time taken for the motion of the car starting from when its starts to when it stops.
Thus, the time elapsed = 4 + 1
= 5 seconds
