A 5.31 kg object is swung in a vertical circular path on a string 2.99 m long. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the

speed at the top of the circle is 6.2 m/s, what is the tension in the string when the object is at the top of the circle

Answer:

T = 120.3 N

Explanation:

Since, the tension in the rope is acting against both the centripetal force and the weight of the stone. As both act downward towards center of the circle and tension acts towards point of support that is upward. So, tension will be equal to the sum of centripetal force and weight of the stone:

Tension = Centripetal Force + Weight of Stone

T = mv²/r + mg

where,

m = mass of stone = 5.31 kg

r = radius of circle = length of string = 2.99 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

T = (5.31 kg)(6.2 m/s)²/(2.99 m) + (5.31 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

T = 68.27 N + 52.03 N

<u>T = 120.3 N</u>

What is the definition of a point object?
Kaylis [27]
Point object is an expression that is used in Kinematics. It refers the object whose dimensions are ignored or neglected and is treated as a dot object to simplify the calculations. When the object is treated as a point object it means the whole mass is summed in one point, you can imagine it as a sphere which has the mass and the radius is 0...

What is a wave? Use the terms wavelength and frequency in your definition.
adelina 88 [10]

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.

Frequency

Wavelength etc

The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.

Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :

Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength

gregori [183]
One simple way to losing weight is by calorie counting. Peter can go to his nutritionist and learn just how much calories he can have as intake per day to lose weight. The nutrition label on any food item lists the calories and their serving sizes. This can be used to keep track of how much calories Peter has taken each day, so as to not go over his daily limit.
