Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 2.3 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.034 m, using a string of length 0

.034 m. You wish the mass to have a kinetic energy of 13.0 Joules when released. How strong will the string need to be

Answer:

T = 764.41 N

Explanation:

In this case the tension of the string is determined by the centripetal force. The formula to calculate the centripetal force is given by:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}  (1)

m: mass object = 2.3 kg

r: radius of the circular orbit = 0.034 m

v: tangential speed of the object

However, it is necessary to calculate the velocity v first. To find v you use the formula for the kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

You have the value of the kinetic energy (13.0 J), then, you replace the values of K and m, and solve for v^2:

v^2=\frac{2K}{m}=\frac{2(13.0J)}{2.3kg}=11.3\frac{m^2}{s^2}

you replace this value of v in the equation (1). Also, you replace the values of r and m:

F_c=(2.3kg)(\frac{11.3m^2/s^2}{0.034})=764.41N

hence, the tension in the string must be T =  Fc = 764.41 N

Serggg [28]

Answer:

\frac{dD}{dt} = -4 miles/hour

negative sign indicates that the distance is decreasing with time

Explanation:

Let at any time t after noon that is 12 p.m.  

distance traveled by car A = 40t

distance traveled by car B = 90-60t

then distance between the two cars at time t

D^2= (40t)^2+(90-60t)^2............1

also, at time 1 p.m.

distance D^2= (40\times1)^2+(90-60\times1)^2

D=50 Km

differentiating equation 1 w.r.t. t we get

2D\frac{dD}{dt}= 2\times40t\times40+2(90-60t)(-60)

put t= 1 and D= 50 we get

2\times50\frac{dD}{dt}= 3200\times1-3600\times1

\frac{dD}{dt} = -4 miles/hour
