A bowling ball weighing 71.7 N is attached to the ceiling by a rope of length 3.73 m . The ball is pulled to one side and releas

ed; it then swings back and forth as a pendulum. As the rope swings through the vertical, the speed of the bowling ball is 4.60 m/s. At this instant, what are:
a. the acceleration of the bowling ball, in magnitude and direction
b. the tension in the rope?

Answer:

A) a = 5.673 m/s²

The direction will be upwards vertically towards the point where it is suspended.

B) T = 113.2 N

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Weight of bowling ball; W = 71.7 N

Speed; v = 4.6 m/s

Rope length; r = 3.73 m

Now, formula for the centripetal acceleration is;

a = v²/r

Thus; a = 4.6²/3.73

a = 5.673 m/s²

The direction will be upwards vertically towards the point where it is suspended.

B) since weight is 71.7 N, it means that;

Mass = weight/acceleration = 71.7/9.8

Mass(m) = 7.316 kg

Thus,

Centripetal force is;

F_cent = 7.316 × 5.673

F_cent = 41.5 N

Thus, Tension in the rope is;

T = W + F_cent

T = 71.7 + 41.5

T = 113.2 N

Using diagram differentiate between solenoid and a toroid
damaskus [11]

The Toroid is form when you have wound conductor around circular body. In this case you have magnatic field inside the core but you dont have any poles because circular body dont have ends. This can be used where you want minimum flux leakage and dont need magnatic poles. i.e. toroidal inductor, toroidal transformer.


The Solenoid is forn when you wound conductor around body with limb. In this case magnatic field creates two poles N and S. Solenoids have little bit flux leakage. This used where you want magnatic poles and flux leakage is not an issue. i.e. relay, motors, electromagnates.

1 == toroid


2= solenoid

The sun’s___and the planet’s___keeps planets moving is___orbits.
Sauron [17]

The sun’s gravitational attraction and the planet’s inertia keeps planets moving is circular orbits.

Explanation:

The planets in the Solar System move around the Sun in a circular orbit. This motion can be explained as a combination of two effects:

1) The gravitational attraction of the Sun. The Sun exerts a force of gravitational attraction on every planet. This force is directed towards the Sun, and its magnitude is

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the Sun and the planet

This force acts as centripetal force, continuously "pulling" the planet towards the centre of its circular orbit.

2) The inertia of the planet. In fact, according to Newton's first law, an object in motion at constant velocity will continue moving at its velocity, unless acted upon an external unbalanced force. Therefore, the planet tends to continue its motion in a straight line (tangential to the circular orbit), however it turns in a circle due to the presence of the gravitational attraction of the Sun.

A dime is placed in front of a concave mirror that has a radius of curvature R = 0.40 m. The image of the dime is inverted and t
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

distance between the dime and the mirror, u = 0.30 m

Given:

Radius of curvature, r = 0.40 m

magnification, m = - 2 (since,inverted image)

Solution:

Focal length is half the radius of curvature, f = \frac{r}{2}

f = \frac{0.40}{2} = 0.20 m

Now,

m = - \frac{v}{u}

- 2 = -\frac{v}{u}

\frac{v}{u} = 2                  (2)

Now, by lens maker formula:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

v = \frac{uf}{u - f}            (3)

From eqn (2):

v = 2u

put v = 2u in eqn (3):

2u = \frac{uf}{u - f}

2 = \frac{f}{u - f}

2(u - 0.20) = 0.20

u = 0.30 m
