Answer:

Tetherball is an interesting game in which two players tries to hit the ball hard so that it goes around the

pole.Each time the player hits the ball, it's orbit rises higher off the ground.Let's understand the physics

behind this.The motion of a tetherball is governed by two forces.These two forces combine to generate a

net force, i.e. centripetal force.If the ball is moving more quickly, it requires a greater centripetal force,

which in turn requires a greater tension force.Since the ball's weight hasn't changed, the angle of the

tension force changes until the ball is in vertical equilibrium.

Ball Mass : This slider controls the mass of the ball. A ball with more mass will have more inertia, requiring

a greater net force to accelerate it. A ball with more mass will ALSO have a greater gravitational force

acting on it. Watch both of these effects occur when you manipulate this slider.

Cable Length : This slider controls the length of the cable. A longer cable is capable of allowing a greater

circular radius of motion for the ball. It is important to remember that the radius of the circular motion is

NOT equal to the length of the cable. Instead, if you want to understand the size of the circle of the ball's

motion, ignore the cable and just imagine the path of the ball.

Ball Speed : This slider controls the speed of the ball - imagine a kid just hit the ball and it sped up. A ball

moving more quickly is also accelerating more quickly because its velocity is changing as it moves in a

circle (remember that changes in DIRECTION of velocity 'count' as changes to velocity).

Force Diagram : This allows you to turn on or off the diagram of the forces acting on the ball. Look for the

ball to be in vertical force balance, which means the vertical component of tension is canceled by the

gravitational force. The ball should NOT be in horizontal force balance - it is accelerating towards the center

of the circle! It is important to note that this free body diagram should really be moving with the ball so that

the tension force always points along the cord - we are just showing the forces at the moment the ball is at

the furthest-right on this screen.

Centripetal force vs Tetherball speed : This is a plot of centripetal force required to keep the ball in

circular orbit about the pole as a function of its speed. As expected, a more quickly-moving ball is changing

in velocity more often in a given amount of time, and so is accelerating more. This greater (centripetal, or

center-pointing) acceleration requires a greater net force.

A block is held at rest against a wall by a force of magnitude F exerted at an angle theta from the horizontal, as shown in the
wel

Answers:

B.) F cos\theta=F_{n}

C.) F sin\theta=F_{g} \pm F_{f}

Explanation:

The image attached shows the way the force F is acting on the block. Now, if we draw a free body diagram of the situation and write the equations for the Net Force in X and Y, we will have the following:

Net Force in X:

-F_{n}+F cos\theta=0 (1)

Where:

F_{n} is the Normal force

F is the magnitude of the force exerted on the block

\theta is the angle

Net Force in Y:

F sin\theta \pm F_{f}-F_{g}=0 (2)

Where:

F_{f} is the Friction force (it is expresed with the \pm sign because this force may be up or down, we cannot know because the block is at rest)

F_{g} is the gravity force

Rewrittin (1):

F cos\theta=F_{n} (3) This is according to option B

Rewritting (2):

F sin\theta=F_{g}\pm F_{f} (3) This is according to option C

Part A.)Six boxes held at rest against identical walls.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a body is held against a vertical wall , to keep them in balanced position , normal force is applied on their surface . this force creates normal reaction which acts against the normal force and it is equal to the normal force as per newton's third law . Ultimately friction force is created which is proportional to normal force and it acts in vertically upward direction . It prevents the body from falling down .

Hence normal force = reaction force .

From second law also net force is zero , so if  normal force is N and reaction force is R

R - N = mass x acceleration = mass x 0 = 0

R = N .

Ranking normal force from  highest  to smallest

150 N , 130 N , 120 N

B )

Frictional force is equal to the weight of the body because the body is held at rest .

Ranking of frictional force form largest to smallest

7 kg , 5 kg , 3 kg , 1 kg .

Here frictional force is irrespective of the normal force acting on the body  because frictional force adjusts itself so that it becomes equal to weight in all cases here because it always balances the weight of the body .

A rod 7.0 m long is pivoted at a point 2.0 m from the left end. A downward force of 50 N acts at the left end, and a downward fo
kicyunya [14]

If the rod is in rotational equilibrium, then the net torques acting on it is zero:

∑ τ = 0

Let's give the system a counterclockwise orientation, so that forces that would cause the rod to rotate counterclockwise act in the positive direction. Compute the magnitudes of each torque:

• at the left end,

τ = + (50 N) (2.0 m) = 100 N•m

• at the right end,

τ = - (200 N) (5.0 m) = - 1000 N•m

• at a point a distance d to the right of the pivot point,

τ = + (300 N) d

Then

∑ τ = 100 N•m - 1000 N•m + (300 N) d = 0

⇒   (300 N) d = 1100 N•m

⇒   d ≈ 3.7 m
