A boy weighing 445 N swings on a 2-m long swing. If his horizontal speed at the lowest point is 3 m/s, what total force must the

ropes holding the swing be able to withstand?

Explanation:

We need to calculate the centripetal force:

Fc = W + F

With Fc being the centripetal force, W the weight of the boy, F the centrifugal force (apparent).

We know that we can calculate the apparent centrifugal force thank to the formula:

F = (m·v²)/r = 204N

So we can write:

Fc = W + F = 445N + 204N = 649N

A ball rolls forward in the grass slowing down as it rolls?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Yes it does, uh huh.  It slows down as it rolls.  That's a fact.

In order for the ball to roll forward, it has to push grass out of the way.  That takes energy.  To bend each blade of grass out of its way, the ball has to use a tiny bit of the kinetic energy that it has, so it gradually runs out of kinetic energy.  When its kinetic energy is all gone, it stops moving.

Question 4 How much time does it take to walk 8 km north at a velocity of 3.8 km/h?​
IrinaVladis [17]

Given parameters:

Displacement = 8km

Velocity  = 3.8km/h

Unknown:

time  = ?

Solution:

Velocity is displacement divided by time.

  Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}  

      Displacement  = velocity x time

Input the parameters:

              8  = 3.8  x time

 Time  = \frac{8}{3.8}   = 2.1s

The time taken is 2.1s

How can a force change the motion of an object that is already moving?
lara [203]

Answer:They may cause motion to change

Explanation:They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity.

An amusement park ride consists of a rotating circular platform 8.26 m in diameter from which 10 kg seats are suspended at the e
VashaNatasha [74]

To solve this problem we will begin by finding the necessary and effective distances that act as components of the centripetal and gravity Forces. Later using the same relationships we will find the speed of the body. The second part of the problem will use the equations previously found to find the tension.

PART A) We will begin by finding the two net distances.

r = \frac{8.26}{2} = 4.13m

And the distance 'd' is

d = lsin\theta

d = 1.14 sin 16.2\°

d = 0.318m

Through the free-body diagram the tension components are given by

Tcos\theta = mg

Tsin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

Here we can watch that,

R = r+d

Dividing both expression we have that,

tan\theta = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

Replacing the values,

tan(16.2) = \frac{v^2}{(4.13+0.318)(9.8)}

v = 4.83371m/s

PART B) Using the vertical component we can find the tension,

Tcos\theta = mg

T = \frac{mg}{cos\theta}

T = \frac{(10+26.2)(9.8)}{cos(16.2)}

T = 369.42N

How can humans increase the rate of endangered of extinct species
labwork [276]

I would think A. Reduce Environmental Impacts.

If you build and populate more zoos, some of the endangered species might not be able to survive in captivity

If you introduce new predators they are going to kill all the endangered species and if you pass new laws about land use some people may kill the species
