A 12.6-kg monkey is hanging by one arm from a branch and swinging on a vertical circle. As an approximation, assume a radial dis
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

a)27.3N

b)150.78N

Explanation:

Having in mind the conservation of energy, as the monkey goes up (gaining potential gravitational energy) the kinetic energy must be reduced, so reducing the velocity of the monkey. So the maximum velocity will be at this lower point with a velocity of 1.36m/s

From this velocity and the radius we can calculate the angular velocity for the monkey center of mass:

w=\frac{1.36m/s}{0.853m} =1.594 /s

with this we can calculate the centripetal force magnitude:

F=m*w^{2} *r=12.6kg*(1.594/s)^{2} *0.853m=27.3N

On the mokey center of mass we have two opposite forces acting, the tension of the arm and the weight, in order for the monkey to continue swinging the resolt of this two forces must be equal to the centripetal force:

T-P=F=>T=F+P

T=27.3N+12.6kg*9.8m/s^{2}=150.78N

There are 2 concentric cylinders. These cylinders are very long with length L. The inner cylinder has a radius R1 and is a solid
OLga [1]
To get the charge along the inner cylinder, we use Gauss Law
E = d R1/2εo
For the outer cylinder the charge can be calculated using
E = d R2^2/2εoR1
where d is the charge density
Use these two equations to get the charge in between the cylinders and the capacitance between them.

Why would an egg break immediately when it hits the ground?
Elza [17]

As an egg falls towards the floor, it begins to travel faster and faster. When it slams into the floor, the egg is stopped almost immediately. This force of the floor against the eggshell is too large, so it breaks.
