Answer:

D. 9 N

Explanation:

The tension on the string is equivalent to the centripetal force.

Centripetal force is the force exerted by an object in circular motion or path towards the center of the circular path.

Centripetal force = mv²/r

where m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity and r is the radius of the circular path.

Centripetal force = (0.25 kg × 6²)/ 1

                            = 9 N

Thus, the tension on the string is 9 N

vlabodo [156]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts given in the kinematic equations of movement description.

From the perspective of angular movement, we find the relationship with the tangential movement of velocity through

\omega = \frac{v}{R}

Where,

\omega =Angular velocity

v = Lineal Velocity

R = Radius

At the same time we know that the acceleration is given as the change of speed in a fraction of the time, that is

\alpha = \frac{\omega}{t}

Where

\alpha =Angular acceleration

\omega = Angular velocity

t = Time

Our values are

v = 60\frac{km}{h} (\frac{1h}{3600s})(\frac{1000m}{1km})

v = 16.67m/s

r = 0.25m

t=6s

Replacing at the previous equation we have that the angular velocity is

\omega = \frac{v}{R}

\omega = \frac{ 16.67}{0.25}

\omega = 66.67rad/s

Therefore the angular speed of a point on the outer edge of the tires is 66.67rad/s

At the same time the angular acceleration would be

\alpha = \frac{\omega}{t}

\alpha = \frac{66.67}{6}

\alpha = 11.11rad/s^2

Therefore the angular acceleration of a point on the outer edge of the tires is 11.11rad/s^2
