For this case the centripetal force is given by:

F = m * (\frac{v^2}{r})

Where,

m: mass of the object

v: tangential speed

r: rope radius

Substituting values in the equation we have:

F = (4.0) * (\frac{1.8^2}{1.2})

Then, doing the corresponding calculations:

F = 10.8 N

Answer:

The centripetal force exerted on the rope is:

F = 10.8 N

How does a bimetallic strip work in a sinple alarm system​
tatiyna
The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.

A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.
