A Styrofoam ball has just been shot straight up. Air resistance is not negligible (free body diagram)

In a free body diagram for an object projected upwards;

  • the acceleration due to gravity on the object is always directed downwards.
  • the velocity of the object is always in the direction of the object's motion.

An object projected upwards is subjected to influence of acceleration due to gravity.

As the object accelerates upwards, its velocity decreases until the object reaches maximum height where its velocity becomes zero and as the object descends its velocity increases, which eventually becomes maximum before the object hits the ground.

To construct a free body diagram for this motion, we consider the following;

  • the acceleration due to gravity on the object is always directed downwards
  • the velocity of the object is always in the direction of the object's motion.

<u>For instance:</u>

upward motion for velocity  ↑        downward motion for velocity  ↓

                                              ↑                                                            ↓

                                              ↑                                                            ↓

acceleration due to gravity ↓

                                             ↓

                                             ↓

No spacecraft has been built yet that was able to absorb harmful
radiations in space, change weather conditions on Earth, or destroy
meteors and comets which might strike Earth.

We should continue to send robotic spacecrafts into space
because they help discard some myths about objects in space. 
In other words, they help us learn things that we never knew before.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

T=83.37N

Explanation:

Since the object is under a circular motion, according to Newton's second law, when the object is at the top of the circle we have:

\sum F_y: T-mg=F_c

Where F_c is the centripetal force and is given by:

F_c=ma_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

Replacing and solving for T:

T=m\frac{v^2}{r}+mg\\T=0.2kg\frac{(6.38\frac{m}{s})^2}{0.1m}+0.2kg(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\T=83.37N
