Answer:

2.7 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the ball.  There are two forces:

Weight force mg pulling down

Tension force T pulling 39° above the horizontal

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T sin θ − mg = 0

T = mg / sin θ

Sum of the forces in the radial (+x) direction:

∑F = ma

T cos θ = m v² / r

Substitute:

(mg / sin θ) cos θ = m v² / r

mg / tan θ = m v² / r

g / tan θ = v² / r

v = √(gr / tan θ)

Given that r = 0.6 m and θ = 39°:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 0.6 m / tan 39°)

v ≈ 2.7 m/s

Why is it important for the path of a circuit to be circular?
vredina [299]

Answer:

When the platform rotates, the rotating mass will travel in a circular path due to the force exerted on it by the string (by way of the tension in the spring). Since it is not possible to have an instantaneous readout of this tension force while the platform is rotating, an indirect measurement of this force will be made using the weight of the static mass as shown and explained below.
