Answer:
v=3.57m/s
Explanation:
Hi, let's solve this!
The speed is minimal when the voltage T = 0N
This occurs when the balance is
T + m * g = m * v2 / r
Since the voltage is zero, then we cancel it and the equation is
m * g = m * v2 / r
We have the following data:
m = 0.16kg
g = 9.8m / s2
r = 1.13m
We cleared the speed and it is
v=3.57m/s

Answer:
-9.46 N
Explanation:
In order to get the value of the x component of the resultant force, we need to get the value of the x component of each force.
This value will be the projection of the force vector, on the x-axis.
For F₁, as it is directed at an angle of 55.0º above the negative x axis, we can find F₁ₓ just applying the definition of cosine of an angle, as follows:
cos θ =
In this case, x = F₁ₓ, and r = F₁
θ, measured from the positive x axis counterclockwise, is as follows:
θ= 180º-55º = 125º
⇒ F₁ₓ = F₁* cosθ = 9.2 N * cos 125º = -5.28 N
We can repeat the process for F₂, as follows:
For F₂, as it is directed at an angle of 53.3º below the negative x axis, we can find F₂ₓ just applying the definition of cosine of an angle, as follows:
cos θ =
In this case, x = F₂ₓ, and r = F₂
θ, measured from the positive x axis counterclockwise, is as follows:
θ= 180º + 53.3º = 233.3º
⇒ F₂ₓ = F₂* cosθ = 7.00 N * cos 233.3º = -4.18 N
The total component of both forces along the x axis, can be found just adding both components, as follows:
Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ = -5.28 N + -4.18 N = -9.46 N
