A tetherball is tied to the end of a string of negligible mass. The ball is struck so that it moves in uniform circular motion i

n a horizontal plane, and the string makes an angle of 26° with the vertical pole. The mass of the ball is 1.3 kg. What is the ball's speed

The centripetal force is directed parallel to the string and the weight of the ball is always directed downwards. Making a force balance along the direction of vertical axis:
Fc cos 26 = W
where Fc is the centripetal force which is equal to mv2/r
W is the weight which is equal to mg

m v2 /r cos 26= mg
v2 /r cos 26 = g
v2 = rg cos 26
v2 = 2.1(9.81) cos 26
v = 4.30 m/s

The ball's speed is 4.30 m/s.

Answer:

v =  24sqrt{r} m/s

Explanation:

as vertical force is equal to weight,

hence W= Fc Cos 26

now ,   mass= mg

and Fc= mv^{2}/r

where r is the length of string.

putting all the values together in equation 1 :

mg = mv^{2}/r Cos 26

v^{2} = rg Cos 26

v^{2} = r (9.8) Cos 26

v^{2} = 9.8 * (.64691) r

   v =  24sqrt{r} m/s

A bicycle racer rides from a starting marker to a turnaround marker at 10 m/s. She then rides back along the same route from the
vitfil [10]

Answer:

12.31 m/s

Explanation:

If we recall from the previous knowledge we had about speed,

we will know that:

speed = distance/ time.

As such:

The average speed of the rider bicycle is

average speed = total distance/ total time

Mathematically, it can be computed as:

v_{avg} = \dfrac{d+d}{\dfrac{d}{v_1}+ \dfrac{d}{v_2}}

v_{avg} = \dfrac{2d}{\dfrac{d}{10 \ m/s}+ \dfrac{d}{16 \ m/s}}

v_{avg} = \dfrac{2}{\dfrac{1}{10 \ m/s}+ \dfrac{1}{16 \ m/s}}

v_{avg} = \dfrac{2}{\dfrac{13}{80 \ m/s}}

\mathbf{v_{avg} =12.31 \ m/s}
