You are spinning a rock, of mass 0.75 kg, at the end of a string of length 0.86m in a vertical circle in uniform circular motion

. What minimum speed is necessary so that there is no tension in the string at the top of the circle but the rock stays in the same circular path? If the string's maximum tension is 45 N, what is the maximum speed the rock can have so that the string does not break? At what point in the vertical circle does this maximum value occur?

Answer:

v (minimum speed) = 2.90 m/sec.

\\ \\ maximum speed (v)= 6.57 m/sec.\\

Maximum value of speed will occur at lowest point of vertical circle.

Explanation:

a)  What minimum speed is necessary so that there is no tension in the string at the top of the circle but the rock stays in the same circular path?

Using the force balance expression at the top of the circle,

Gravitational Force + Tension force = Centrifugal force

m*g + T = m*v^2/R

Given that : T = 0

R = length of string = 0.86 m

mass of the spinning rock = 0.75 kg

v = \sqrt{g*R}

v = \sqrt{9.81*0.86}

v (minimum speed) = 2.90 m/sec.

b) what is the maximum speed the rock can have so that the string does not break?

Here the  force balance at bottom of circle is represented by the illustration:

T = m*g + m*v^2/R

Given that:

maximum tension T = 45 N

maximum speed v = ??

mass  m = 0.75 kg

∴

45 - 0.75*9.81 = 0.75*\frac{v^2}{0.86} \\\\v^2 = 0.86*(45 - 0.75*9.81)/0.75 \\ v = \sqrt{0.86*(45 - 0.75*9.81)/0.75\\ maximum speed (v)= 6.57 m/sec.\\

c)

At what point in the vertical circle does this maximum value occur?

Maximum value of speed will occur at lowest point of vertical circle.

This is so because  at the lowest point; the tension in string will be maximum.

Joe balances a stationary coin on the the tip of his finger 20 cm from the top of the table. How much work is Joe doing?
adell [148]

The work done by Joe is 0 J.

<u>Explanation</u>:

When a force is applied to an object, there will be a movement because of the applied force to a certain distance. This transfer of energy when a force is applied to an object that tends to move the object is known as work done.

The energy is transferred from one state to another and the stored energy is equal to the work done.

                                 W = F . D

where F represents the force in newton,  

          D represents the distance or displacement of an object.

Force = 0 N,   D = 20 cm = 0.20 m

                                 W = 0 \times 0.20 = 0 J.

Hence the work done by Joe is 0 J.

Use this free body diagram to help you find the magnitude of the force F2 needed to keep this block in static equilibrium. WILL
oksian1 [2.3K]
Static equilibrium means that all forces are equal, so make this easiest you want to break F1 into it's horizontal and vertical components. As there are no other forces acting in the horizontal, we know the horizontal component of F1 is 40N. This allows the vertical component to be found using pythagorus theorem. After finding the vertical and horizontal components, you just have to add the vertical components to find the difference between the up and down.

Equation of orbit under central force​
SOVA2 [1]

I found this on arxsiv.org: “The central force motion between two bodies about their center of mass can be reduced to an equivalent one body problem in terms of their reduced mass m and their relative radial distance r. ... The potential V (r) from which this force is derived is also a function of r alone, F = −VV, V ≡ V (r).”

Object A and object B are moving with the same momentum. Which of the following statements must be true?
nordsb [41]

The FIRST statement on the list is the definition of momentum, so that's the one that must be true.

A long, straight wire carrying a current of 2.60 A is placed along the axis of a cylinder of radius 0.500 m and a length of 4.25
shutvik [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

0

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Since the current carrying wire is placed along the axis of the cylinder, according to the right hand rule, the magnetic field will be tangent to the surface of the cylinder. Therefore, there is no magnetic field through the cylinder.

Remember that the magnetic flux through a given area is the total magnetic field passing through that area. Since there is not magnetic field through the cylinder, the total magnetic flux is therefore zero (0).
