A 0.400-kg object is swung in a circular path and in a vertical plane on a 0.500-m-length string. If the angular speed at the bo

ttom is 8.00 rad/s, what is the tension in the string when the object is at the bottom of the circle?

Answer:

T = 16.72 N

Explanation:

When the object is swung in a circular path, and in a vertical plane, there are two forces external to the object acting on it at any time: the gravity (which is always downward) and the tension in the string (which always points towards the center of the circle).

At the bottom of the circle, the tension is directly upward, so these two forces, are opposite each other, and the difference between them is the centripetal force , which at this point, keeps the object swinging in a circle.

This is the point of the trajectory where T is maximum.

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law, choosing an axis vertical (y-axis) being the upward direction the positive one, as follows:

T- m*g = m*a

The acceleration, at the bottom of the circle, is only normal (as there are no forces in the horizontal direction) , and is equal to the centripetal acceleration, as follows:

ac =  v² / r = ω²*r⇒ T- m*g = m*ω²*r

Replacing by the givens, we can solve for T as follows:

T = m* (ω²*r+g) = 0.4 kg*((8.00)² rad/sec²*0.5m)+9.8 m/s²) = 16.72 N

A 4.0-kg object has 72 J of kinetic energy.<br> Determine its speed.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

6m/s

Explanation:

v = sqrt of 2KE/m

Where:

KE = kinetic energy

m = mass of a body

v = velocity of a body

= sqrt of 2(72)/4

= sqrt of 144/4

= sqrt of 36

= 6m/s

How far from the base of the platform does she land?
seropon [69]

When Janet leaves the platform, she's moving horizontally at 1.92 m/s.  We assume that there's no air resistance, and gravity has no effect on horizontal motion.  There's no horizontal force acting on Janet to make her move horizontally any faster or slower than 1.92 m/s.

She's in the air for 1.1 second before she hits the water.

Moving horizontally at 1.92 m/s for 1.1 second, she sails out away from the platform

(1.92 m/s) x (1.1 sec) = <em>2.112 meters</em>

liberstina [14]

Answer: Doppler Effect

Doppler Effect can be described as the change in wavelength of a wave like upward shift in frequency for an object whom is approaching and an apparent downward shift in frequency for observers from whom the source is receding. This effect can be observed when a boat moves through the water then the waves in front bunch up while the waves behind the boat spread out.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! THIS IS DUE IN 15 MUNITES!! Explain what a Precipitate (Not Precipitation) is and tell me if it is a Physical
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

A precipitate is a solid that separates out of a liquid solution when it is supersaturated (insoluble). This is a chemical change.

Explanation:

Precipitation is when a chemical substance converts into a solid from a solution by converting the substance into an insoluble form or a super-saturated solution. When the reaction occurs in a liquid solution, the solid formed is called the precipitate.

Hope that helps.
