"When we do experiments it's a good idea to do multiple trials, that is, do the same experiment lots of times. When we do multiple trials of the same experiment, we can make sure that our results are consistent and not altered by random events. Multiple trials can be done at one time."
Answer:
a
The radial acceleration is 
b
The horizontal Tension is 
The vertical Tension is 
Explanation:
The diagram illustrating this is shown on the first uploaded
From the question we are told that
The length of the string is 
The mass of the bob is 
The angle made by the string is 
The centripetal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

Now From the diagram we see that this force is equivalent to
where T is the tension on the rope and v is the linear velocity
So

Now the downward normal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

So

=> 
=> 
The centripetal acceleration which the same as the radial acceleration of the bob is mathematically represented as

=> 
substituting values


The horizontal component is mathematically represented as

substituting value

The vertical component of tension is

substituting value

The vector representation of the T in term is of the tension on the horizontal and the tension on the vertical is

substituting value
![T = [(0.3294) i + (3.3712)j ] \ N](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=T%20%20%3D%20%5B%280.3294%29%20i%20%20%2B%20%283.3712%29j%20%5D%20%5C%20%20N)
Answer: 56.72 ft/s
Explanation:
Ok, initially we only have potential energy, that is equal to:
U =m*g*h
where g is the gravitational acceleration, m the mass and h the height.
h = 50ft and g = 32.17 ft/s^2
when the watermelon is near the ground, all the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, and the kinetic energy can be written as:
K = (1/2)*m*v^2
where v is the velocity.
Then we have:
K = U
m*g*h = (m/2)*v^2
we solve it for v.
v = √(2g*h) = √(2*32.17*50) ft/s = 56.72 ft/s
Force=mass*acceleration
F=ma
F=25*5
F=100 N
Sitting = no movement
KE=0
