A 0.240 kg potato is tied to a string with length 1.90 m, and the other end of the string is tied to a rigid support. The potato

is held straight out horizontally from the point of support, with the string pulled taut, and is then released.(a) What is the speed of the potato at the lowest point of its motion? (b) What is the tension in the string at this point?

Answer:

(a) v=6.106m/s

(b) T=7.064N

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=0.240 kg

Length r=1.90 m

Required

(a) Speed v

(b) Tension T

Solution

For Part (a)

As the change in potential energy is equivalent to kinetic energy at lowest point.

So

P.E=K.E

mgr=1/2mv^2\\v^2=2gr\\v=\sqrt{2gr}

Substitute the given

So

v=\sqrt{2*(9.81m/s^2)(1.90m)} \\v=6.106m/s

For part (b)

Consider forces on potato during circular motion

T-mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Substitute the given values to calculate tension in string at lowest point

T=mg+\frac{mv^2}{r}\\ T=(0.240kg)(9.81m/s^2)+\frac{(0.240kg)(6.106m/s)^2}{1.90m}\\ T=7.064N

A hockey puck is hit on a frozen lake and starts moving with a speed of 13.60 m/s. Exactly 6.2 s later, its speed is 7.20 m/s. (
stellarik [79]

Answer:

-1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s².

Mathematically, acceleration is expressed as

a = (v-u)/t ........................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t  = time.

Given: u = 13.60 m/s, v = 7.20 m/s t = 6.2 s.

Substituting into equation 2

a = (7.20-13.60)/6.2

a = -6.4/6.2

a = -1.03 m/s²

Note: a is negative because, the hockey puck is decelerating.

Hence the average acceleration = -1.03 m/s²

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

0.0786

Explanation:

zero after the decimal place is not a significant figure since it comes before the real integer "7".

"5 " in ten thousandth place is rounded off to "6" because the next digit is also another "5",

so we get the three sfg 0.0786
