For this case, the first thing we must do is define a reference system.
Suppose that the positive direction of the reference system is upward.
We have that the sum of forces in the vertical axis is given by:
Fy = Fp - Fg
Substituting values:
Fy = 5500 - 6000
Fy = - 500
The negative sign means that the direction of the force with respect to the defined coordinate system is downward.
Answer:
The net force is:
↓ 500N
A body revolving in circle generally has tangential acceleration if the speed is changing. Since the speed is uniform here, the tangential acceleration is zero.
centripetal acceleration is directed towards the center and is given as
a = v²/r where a = centripetal acceleration , v = speed , r = radius
Since both speed and radius are constant here, the centripetal acceleration is constant and is always directed towards the center.
hence the correct choice is
The acceleration is directed toward the center.
A = -9.8
v = -9.8t -8
s = -4.9 t2 -8t +25
So… -5t^2 -8t + 25 =0, we’ll rearrange to 5t^2 + 8t - 25. We get two roots, one is positive and is 1.59 seconds
V = -9.8(1.59) - 8 = -23.6
So… it takes 1.59 seconds to hit the ground at -23.6 m/s.
Answer: 9 Kg
Explanation:
Force = Mass x Accelaration
18 = Mass x 2
Mass = 18/2
Mass = 9 Kg
