A ball on a string travels once around a circle with a circumference of 2. 0 m. The tension in the string is 5. 0 n.
1 answer:
The work done by the ball on a string is 0J if a ball is travelling around as circle with a circumference of 2.0m
We know that circumference or perimeter of circle=2πr where r is the radius of the circle.
So, we have circumference=2m
Therefore,2πr=2
=>r=2/2π
=>r=(1/π) m
Now, we know very well that when a body moves a displacement dx under the action of force, some amount of work is done by the force on the body and that force is given by
W=
where F is defined as the force acting on the body
and dx is the displacement of the body.
On expanding the above formula, we get
=>W=Fdxcosθ where cosθ is the angle between the force and displacement of the body.
Since Tension is actually centripetal force which is acting along the center of the circle where ball displacement is in perpendicular direction to the tension.
It means angle between Tension and ball's displacement is 90°. So,cos90°=0
Therefore, W=Fdxcos90
=>W=0J.
Hence, amount of work done is 0J.

Ok i apologise for the messy working but I'll try and explain my attempt at logic
Also note i ignore any air resistance for this.
First i wrote the two equations I'd most likely need for this situation, the kinetic energy equation and the potential energy equation.
Because the energy right at the top of the swing motion is equal to the energy right in the "bottom" of the swing's motion (due to conservation of energy), i made the kinetic energy equal to the potential energy as indicated by Ek = Ep.
I also noted the "initial" and "final" height of the swing with hi and hf respectively.
So initially looking at this i thought, what the heck, there's no mass. Then i figured that using the conservation of energy law i could take the mass value from the Ek equation and use it in the Ep equation. So what i did was take the Ek equation and rearranged it for m as you can hopefully see. Then i substituted the rearranged Ek equation into the Ep equation.
So then the equation reads something like Ep = (rearranged Ek equation for m) × g (which is -9.81) × change in height (hf - hi).
Then i simplify the equation a little. When i multiply both sides by v^2 i can clearly see that there is one E on each side (at that stage i don't need to clarify which type of energy it is because Ek = Ep so they're just the same anyway). So i just canceled them out and square rooted both sides.
The answer i got was that the max velocity would be 4.85m/s 3sf, assuming no losses (eg energy lost to friction).
I do hope I'm right and i suppose it's better than a blank piece of paper good luck my dude xx
Answer:
t = 3/2T
To find how long it takes to cover a total distance of 6A, we need to find the time it takes to cover a distance A then multiply by 6.
