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

Which of these best describes the relationship between the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal for a curved mirror?(
lions [1.4K]

For a curved mirror, all points have the same normal and the angle of incidence is also equal to the angle of reflection.

According to the laws of reflection, the incident ray, reflected ray and normal all lie on the same plane. For a curved mirror, the normal remains the same at all points along the curved mirror.

Again, the angle made between the incident ray and the normal is the same as the angle made between the reflected ray and the normal. Therefore, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
