The maximum tension that a 0.80 m string can tolerate is 15 N. A 0.35-kg ball attached to this string is being whirled in a vert
zimovet [89]

Answer:

v=5.86 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the string, l = 0.8 m

Maximum tension tolerated by the string, F = 15 N

Mass of the ball, m = 0.35 kg

We need to find the maximum speed the ball can have at the top of the circle. The ball is moving under the action of the centripetal force. The length of the string will be the radius of the circular path. The centripetal force is given by the relation as follows :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v is the maximum speed

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{15\times 0.8}{0.35}} \\\\v=5.86\ m/s

Hence, the maximum speed of the ball is 5.86 m/s.

Which process is represented by the PV diagram shown below?
MrMuchimi

Answer: B. the isovolumetric process

Explanation:

In the graph given, the volume is constant throughout. It represents a constant volume process. Such processes are called the isovolumetric process or isochoric process.

<em>Hence, option B is the correct answer.</em>

Option A is incorrect because in an isobaric process, the pressure is constant.

Option C is incorrect because in an isothermal process, the temperature is constant.

Option D is incorrect because in an adiabatic process there is no heat transfer.
