A ball of mass 5 kg attached to a string is swung in a horizontal circle of radius 0.5 m. If the tension in the string is 10 N,
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

given,

mass of the ball = 5 kg

radius of the horizontal circle = 0.5 m

tension in the string = 10 N

Work done = ?

Work done by the tension in the circular path will be equal to zero.

This is because body moves in circular path, the centripetal force act along the radius of the circle and motion is right angle to the tension on the string.

so, work done = F s cos θ

     θ = 90°,

work done = F s cos 90°        ∵ cos 90° = 0

Work done = 0 J

The net force acting on a 5 kg discus is 50 n. what is the acceleration of the discus
Lyrx [107]
Answer: 10 m/s^2

Explanation:

1) The second law of Newton gives the definition and formula to calculate the net force:

Net force acting on an object = mass * acceleration.

2) From that, when you know the net force acting of the object and its mass, you can solve for the acceleration:

acceleration = Net force / mass

acceleration = 50 N / 5 kg = 10 m/s^2, which is the answer.
