Answer:

a. The magnitude of the tension in the string is greater than the magnitude of the weight of the rock.

Explanation:

During the motion of the rock while it is in downward motion we can say

T - mg cos\theta = ma_c

since it is performing circular motion so we will have its acceleration towards its center

T = mgcos\theta + ma_c

a_c = \frac{v^2}{L}

T = mgcos\theta + \frac{mv^2}{L}

So at the lowest point of the path we can say

T = mg + \frac{mv^2}{L}

so correct answer is

a. The magnitude of the tension in the string is greater than the magnitude of the weight of the rock.

On a Vernier Caliper, how do you know which mark to use on the very top scale?
madreJ [45]

<u>Answer</u>

To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use<em>. </em>


<u>Explanation</u>

A vernier caliper is an instrument that is used to measure the diameter of small circular objects such as diameter of a wires, thickness of an iron sheet.

The objects to be measured is place between the jaws of the calipers.

The vernier scale has two scales, the vernier scale and the main scale which is the very top scale.<em> To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use. </em>
