Question

A 3,65 kg mass attached to a

Answer 1

This question involves the concepts of tension, weight, and centripetal force.

The maximum speed, the mass can have before the string breaks is "10.26 m/s".

First, we will find the maximum tension force:

Tension = Weight

T = W = mg = (32.4 kg)(9.81 m/s²)

T = 317.84 N

Now, this tension force must be equal to the centripetal force:

$T = \frac{mv^2}{r}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{Tr}{m}}$

where,

v = maximum speed = ?

r = radius = 1.21 m

m = mass = 3.65 kg

Therefore,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{(317.84\ N)(1.21\ m)}{3.65\ kg}}$

v = 10.26 m/s
