Give two examples of contact and non-contact forces and explain why they are contact and non-contact forces respectively.

Sever21 [200]

The Two examples of contact forces are:

frictional force
Contact force.

The two examples of non contact forces are:

Gravitational force
magnetic force.

Contact forces happens due to the contact between two objects

Non Contact forces happens because there is no contact between two objects. There is no attraction.

A 0.40-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle having a radius of 1.8 m. At an instant when the stri

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

T = 8.55 N

Explanation:

When string makes an angle 40 degree with the vertical then it will have two forces on it

1) gravitational force (mg)

2) Tension force in string (T)

now we know that net force towards the center of the path is known as centripetal force and it is given as

$T - mg cos40 = F_c$

$T - (0.40\times 9.8)cos40 = \frac{mv^2}{L}$

$T = 3 + \frac{0.40\times 5^2}{1.8}$

$T = 3 + 5.55$

$T = 8.55 N$
