Given:
F_gravity = 10 N
F_tension = 25 N
Let's find the net centripetal force exterted on the ball.
Apply the formula:
From the given figure, the force acting towards the circular path will be positive, while the force which points directly away from the center is negative.
Hence, the tensional force is positive while the gravitational force is negative.
Thus, we have:
Therefore, the net centripetal force exterted on the ball is 15 N.
ANSWER:
15 N
The rate at which the height is changing is ( 5 / x ) m / hr
We know that,
Area of an equilateral triangle A =
/ 4
h = x / 2
Where,
x = Side
h = Height
Given that,
dA / dt = 5 / hr
h = x / 2
Differentiate both sides with respect to t
dh / dt = ( / 2 ) ( dx / dt )
dx / dt = ( 2 / ) ( dh / dt )
A =
/ 4
Differentiate both sides with respect to t
dA / dt = ( / 4 ) ( 2x ) ( dx / dt )
5 = ( / 4 ) ( 2x ) ( 2 /
) ( dh / dt )
dh / dt = ( 5 / x ) m / hr
Rate of change of height is defined as the rate at which height of an object changes with respect to time. It is represented as dh / dt
Therefore, the rate at which the height is changing is ( 5 / x ) m / hr
