Answer:
a = g = 9.81[m/s^2]
Explanation:
This problem can be solve using the second law of Newton.
We know that the forces acting over the skydiver are only his weight, and it is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration.
m*g = m*a
where:
g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]
a = acceleration [m/s^2]
Note: If the skydiver will be under air resistance forces his acceleration will be different.
m = mass of the penny
r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation
w = angular speed of rotation of turntable
F = centripetal force experienced by the penny
centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as
F = m r w²
in the above equation , mass of penny "m" and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .
hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.
So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.
When the ball starts its motion from the ground, its potential energy is zero, so all its mechanical energy is kinetic energy of the motion:

where m is the ball's mass and v its initial velocity, 20 m/s.
When the ball reaches its maximum height, h, its velocity is zero, so its mechanical energy is just gravitational potential energy:

for the law of conservation of energy, the initial mechanical energy must be equal to the final mechanical energy, so we have

From which we find the maximum height of the ball:

Therefore, the answer is
yes, the ball will reach the top of the tree.
Answer:
9.8m/s
Explanation:
acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass
To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of Forces, the centripetal Force and Newton's second law.
I will also attach a free body diagram that allows a better understanding of the problem.
For there to be a balance between weight and normal strength, these two must be equivalent to the centripetal Force, therefore


Here,
m = Net mass
= Angular velocity
r = Radius
W = Weight
N = Normal Force

The net mass is equivalent to

Then,

Replacing we have then,

Solving to find the angular velocity we have,

Therefore the angular velocity is 0.309rad/s
