To solve this problem we will use the relationship given between the centripetal Force and the Force caused by the weight, with respect to the horizontal and vertical components of the total tension given.
The tension in the vertical plane will be equivalent to the centripetal force therefore

Here,
m = mass
v = Velocity
r = Radius
The tension in the horizontal plane will be subject to the action of the weight, therefore

Matching both expressions with respect to the tension we will have to


Then we have that,


Rearranging to find the velocity we have that

The value of the angle is 14.5°, the acceleration (g) is 9.8m/s^2 and the radius is



Replacing we have that


Therefore the speed of each seat is 4.492m/s
Answer: I believe it is, "New evidence was discovered that made scientists revise their ideas"
Explanation: I don't think that people can travel under the plates :D
That can only be happening if the mass mysteriously increased somehow. I'd like to know how in the world THAT happened.
Answer:
(a): The magnitude of the electric force on the small sphere = 
(b): Shown below.
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- m = mass of the small sphere.
- q = charge on the small sphere.
- L = length of the silk fiber.
= surface charge density of the large vertical insulating sheet.
<h2>
(a):</h2>
When the dimensions of the sheet is much larger than the distance between the charge and the sheet, then, according to Gauss' law of electrostatics, the electric field experienced by the particle due to the sheet is given as:

<em>where,</em>
is the electrical permittivity of the free space.
The electric field at a point is defined as the amount of electric force experienced by a unit positive test charge, placed at that point. The magnitude electric field at a point and the magnitude of the electric force on a charge q placed at that point are related as:

Thus, the magnitude of the electric force on the small sphere is given by

The sheet and the small sphere both are positively charged, therefore, the electric force between these two is repulsive, which means, the direction of the electric force on the sphere is away from the sheet along the line which is perepndicular to the sheet and joining the sphere.
<h2>
(b):</h2>
When the sphere is in equilibrium, the tension in the fiber is given by the resultant of the weight of the sphere and the electric force experienced by it as shown in the figure attached below.
According to the fig.,

<em>where,</em>
= electric force on the sphere, acting along left.
= weight of the sphere, acting vertically downwards.
