A tennis ball connected to a string is spun around in a vertical, circular path at a uniform speed. The ball has a mass m = 0.15

Oksanka [162]

1) 5.5 N

When the ball is at the bottom of the circle, the equation of the forces is the following:

$T-mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}$

where

T is the tension in the string, which points upward

mg is the weight of the string, which points downward, with

m = 0.158 kg being the mass of the ball

g = 9.8 m/s^2 being the acceleration due to gravity

$m \frac{v^2}{R}$ is the centripetal force, which points upward, with

v = 5.22 m/s being the speed of the ball

R = 1.1 m being the radius of the circular trajectory

Substituting numbers and re-arranging the formula, we find T:

$T=mg+m\frac{v^2}{R}=(0.158 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)+(0.158 kg)\frac{(5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}=5.5 N$

2) 3.9 N

When the ball is at the side of the circle, the only force acting along the centripetal direction is the tension in the string, therefore the equation of the forces becomes:

$T=m\frac{v^2}{R}$

And by substituting the numerical values, we find

$T=(0.158 kg)\frac{(5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}=3.9 N$

3) 2.3 N

When the ball is at the top of the circle, both the tension and the weight of the ball point downward, in the same direction of the centripetal force. Therefore, the equation of the force is

$T+mg=m\frac{v^2}{R}$

And substituting the numerical values and re-arranging it, we find

$T=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(0.158 kg)\frac{5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}-(0.158 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=2.3 N$

4) 3.3 m/s

The minimum velocity for the ball to keep the circular motion occurs when the centripetal force is equal to the weight of the ball, and the tension in the string is zero; therefore:

$T=0\\mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}$

and re-arranging the equation, we find

$v=\sqrt{gR}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(1.1 m)}=3.3 m/s$

I neeed help im so comfused Points Possible: 1, Points Correct: 0 Which group of numbers is listed from greatest to least? -3, -

Alona [7]

The groups aren't well formatted ;

The groups are ;

(-3, -1, 0, 2, 7) ; (9, 7, 6, -5, -4) ; (8, -6, 5, -4, 1) ; (-3, -4, -7, -8, -9)

Answer:

(-3, -4, -7, -8, -9)

Explanation:

Given the following group of numbers :

Evaluating each group of values for which is correctly arranged from greatest to least.

(-3, -1, 0, 2, 7) : - 1 is greater than - 3 (the group isn't arranged from greatest to least)

(9, 7, 6, -5, -4) : - 4 is greater than - 5 ; hence, the group isn't arranged from greatest to least

(8, -6, 5, -4, 1) : 5 is greater than - 6 ; hence, the group isn't arranged from greatest to least

(-3, -4, -7, -8, -9) ; the group of numbers here is arranged from greatest to least ;

(-3 > -4 > -7 > -8 > -9) ; hence, the correct group

What is the maximum height a 95 W motor may vertically lift a 120 N weight in 6.2 s?

leva [86]

Answer:

a. 4.9 m

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must take into account that power is defined as the relationship between the work and the time in which the work is done.

P = W/t

where:

P = power = 95 [W] (units of watts)

W = work [J] (units of Joules)

t = time = 6.2 [s]

We can clear the work from the previous equation.

W = P*t

W = 95*6.2 = 589 [J]

Now we know that the work is defined by the product of the force by the distance, therefore we can express the work done with the following equation.

W = F*d

where:

F = force = 120 [N] (units of Newtons)

d = distance [m]

d = W/F

d = 589/120

d = 4.9 [m]
