Ciara is swinging a 0.015 kg ball tied to a string around her head in a flat, horizontal circle. The radius of the circle is 0.7

0 m. It takes the ball 0.60 seconds to complete one full circle. Calculate the tension in the string and its direction that provides the centripetal force acting on the ball to keep it in the circular path.
A) 0.0077 N, toward the center of the circle
B) 1.2 N, toward the center of the circle
C) 0.0077 N, along the line tangent to the circle

Answer:

1.2 N, toward the center of the circle

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 0.015 kg

The radius of the circle, r = 0.7 m

Time taken by the ball to complete complete circle, t = 0.6 s

We need to find the tension in the string and its direction that provides the centripetal force acting on the ball to keep it in the circular path. Here, tension in the string balances the centripetal force so that the ball moves in circular path. So,

T=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

Since, v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}=\dfrac{2\pi \times 0.7}{0.6}=7.33\ m/s

So, T=\dfrac{0.015\times (7.33)^2}{0.7}

T = 1.15 N

or

T = 1.2 N

The direction of centripetal force is toward the center of circle. So, the correct option is (b).

Answer:

B) 1.2 N, toward the center of the circle

Explanation:

The circumference of the circle is:

C = 2πr

C = 2π (0.70 m)

C = 4.40 m

So the velocity of the ball is:

v = C/t

v = 4.40 m / 0.60 s

v = 7.33 m/s

Sum of the forces in the radial direction:

∑F = ma

T = m v² / r

T = (0.015 kg) (7.33 m/s)² / (0.70 m)

T = 1.2 N

The tension force is 1.2 N towards the center of the circle.

An advertisement for an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) claims that the ATV can climb inclined slopes of 35°. What is the minimum coef
navik [9.2K]

An advertisement for an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) claims that the ATV can climb inclined slopes of 35°. The minimum coefficient of static friction needed for this claim to be possible is 0.7

In an inclined plane, the coefficient of static friction is the angle at which an object slide over another.  

As the angle rises, the gravitational force component surpasses the static friction force, as such, the object begins to slide.

Using the Newton second law;

\sum F_x = \sum F_y = 0

\mathbf{mg sin \theta -f_s= N-mgcos \theta = 0 }

  • So; On the L.H.S

\mathbf{mg sin \theta =f_s}

\mathbf{mg sin \theta =\mu_s N}

  • On the R.H.S

N = mg cos θ

Equating both force component together, we have:

\mathbf{mg sin \theta =\mu_s \ mg \ cos \theta}

\mathbf{sin \theta =\mu_s \ \ cos \theta}

\mathbf{\mu_s = \dfrac{sin \theta }{ cos \theta}}

From trigonometry rule:

\mathbf{tan \theta= \dfrac{sin \theta }{ cos \theta}}

∴

\mathbf{\mu_s =\tan \theta}}

\mathbf{\mu_s =\tan 35^0}}

\mathbf{\mu_s = 0.700}}

Therefore, we can conclude that the minimum coefficient of static friction needed for this claim to be possible is 0.7

Explain how do you determine the intensity of earthquake​
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake. The USGS currently reports earthquake magnitudes using the Moment Magnitude scale, though many other magnitudes are calculated for research and comparison purposes.

Who needs to know physics when they are making a satellite
vladimir2022 [97]
First satellite was Sputnik and it was a race then to send satellites!! Everyone starts experimenting how to launch.

first try was on a dog , Laika !! It was send to space as it is long after sputnik is placed in orbit !!

Now you know everyone knows rocket science and the most active are ISRO (India) and NASA (USA) !!
