The tension in the swing's chain at the bottom of the swing is 178.35 N.

The given parameters:

Mass of the girl, m = 27 kg
Speed of the girl, v = 3 m/s
Radius of the circle, r = 4 m

The tension in the swing's chain at the bottom of the swing is calculated as follows;

$T = mg + ma_c\\\\ T= mg + \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\T = (12 \times 9.8) + (\frac{27 \times 3^2}{4} )\\\\T = 117.6 \ N \ + \ 60.75 \ N\\\\T = 178.35 \ N$

Thus, the tension in the swing's chain at the bottom of the swing is 178.35 N.

A toy plane is flying in a horizontal circle by being attached to a 0.75 meter string. The plane has a mass of 101.7 grams and m

nadezda [96]

Answer:

F = 2,894 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

a = v² / r

Angular and linear variables are related.

v = w r

Let's replace

F = m w² r

The radius r and the length of the rope is related

cos is = r / L

r = L cos tea

Let's replace

F = m w² L cos θ

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

m = 101.7 g (1 kg / 1000g) = 0.1017 kg

θ = 5 rev (2π rad / rev) = 31,416 rad

w = θ / t

w = 31.416 / 5.1

w = 6.16 rad / s

F = 0.1017 6.16² 0.75 cos θ

F = 2,894 cos θ

The maximum value of F is for θ equal to zero

F = 2,894 N

HURRY Which change is an example of transforming potential energy to kinetic energy

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C. changing nuclear energy to radiant energy

Explanation:

Nuclear energy takes atoms in their potential state, split them (fission) or fuse them (fusion) creating chain reactions of radiant energy. Most nuclear electrical power plants use fission, radiant energy heats water making steam to spin turbines.

Or think of the atom bomb. Definitely potential energy until the fuse starts detonation and chain reactions. The radiant kinetic energy and shock waves were horrendous.

A circuit contains a 1.5 volt battery and a bulb with a resistance of 3 ohms. Calculate the current

Vitek1552 [10]

The formula that links voltage (V), resistance (R) and current intensity (I) is

$V=RI$

Solve this formula for I to get

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

Plug your values for V and R and you'll get the current.

A cat jumps off a piano that is 1.3m high. The initial velocity of the cat is 3m/s at an angle of 37degrees above the horizontal

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

$x=1.75m$

Explanation:

From the exercise we have that

$y_{o}=1.3m\\v_{o}=3m/s, \beta =37\\$

To find how far from the edge of the piano does the cat strike the floor, we need to calculate its time first

$y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

At the end of the motion y=0m

$0=1.3+3sin(37)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}$

Solving for t

$t=-0.36 s$ or $t=0.73s$

Since the time can't be negative the answer is t=0.73

Knowing that we can calculate how far does the cat strike the floor

$x=v_{ox}t=3cos(37)(0.73)=1.75m$

Since there are no aurora observed on Venus we can conclude that Venus a. lacks atmospheric oxygen b. is too hot for magnetic fo

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Yes, Venus does not have the same magnetic field as that of earth's

Explanation:

Instead, there are solar wind particles that can deeply penetrate the venus atmosphere and can collide with the other carbon atoms already present in the air but lacks oxygen and thus does not have that strong magnetic field which would deflect the suns rays and create aurora in the sky at night.
