There are two forces operating on the block. A downward force due to acceleration and an upward force due to the rope.
Whether gravity is operating depends on where this takes place. If it's on Earth the answer is "yes - the Earth's gravity". However, it is on an accelerating space craft then acceleration is due to change in velocity rather than gravity. For the sake of simplicity, assume the experiment takes place on Earth, but it's worth mentioning that with the information given here you can't say for sure whether it is gravity or change in velocity that is causing the downward force.

Gravity is present but the rope is keeping it from falling so it may not look like it is present. By the way, air reistance is also present.

Find the radian measure of the central angle of a circle of radius 14 feet that intercepts an arc of length 9 ft.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

central angle is 1.55 rad

Explanation:

Given data

radius = 14 feet

length = 9 ft

to find out

radian measure of the central angle

solution

we know here arc length and radius

so we will apply here formula for central angle that is

radius = arc × ∅

∅ = radius / arc

put here all these value

∅ = 14 / 9

∅ = 1.55 radian

so central angle is 1.55 rad
