A 90 g bead on a 60 cm long string is swung in a vertical circle about a point 200 cm above the floor. The tension in the string when the bead is at the very bottom of the circle is 2.2 N. A very sharp knife is suddenly inserted, as show in the figure, to cut the string directly below the point of support. How far to the right of center of the circle does the ball hit the floor?

A light string can support a stationary hanging load of 25.0 kg before breaking. An object of mass m = 3.00 kg attached to the string rotates on a frictionless, horizontal table in a circle of radius r = 0.800 m, and the other end of the string is held fixed as in Figure P5.17. What range of speeds can the object have before the string breaks? Figure P5.17
A ball of mass m = 0.275 kg swings in a vertical circular path on a string L= 0.850 m long as shown in the figure. If its speed is 5.20 m/s at the top of the circle, what is the tension in the string there?
A 0.15 kg ball on a 0.548 m long string is swung in a vertical circle about a point 2.94 m above the floor. The tension in the string when the ball is at the very bottom of the circle is 5.93 N. A very sharp knife is suddenly inserted to cut the string directly below the point of support. How far to the right of where the string was cut does the ball hit the floor?
In the figure, a 105 g ball on a 58.6 cm rope is swung in a vertical circle about a point 255 cm above the ground. If the ball is swung at the slowest speed where the ball goes over the top of the circle without the rope having any slack and the rope is released when the ball is at the top of the loop, how far to the right does the ball hit the floor?
a ball is on the end of a string. The ball is being swung in a vertical circle at a constant speed. The length of the string is 0.430 m. The mass of the ball is 1.30 kg. The speed of the ball is 4.70 m/s. What is the tension in the string when the ball is at the side of the circle (point b in the figure)?
A ball is on the end of a string. The ball is being swung in a vertical circle at a constant speed.The length of the string is 0.490 m. The mass of the ball is 1.30 kg. The speed of ball is 6.80 m/s.What is the tension in the string when the ball is at the side of the circle (Point B in the figure)?
A ball of mass 100gr is attached to an 80cm long string and undergoes vertical circular motion. The center of the circle is 3 meters off the ground, as illustrated in the figure below. The ball is swung at the minimum speed necessary to make it over the top without the string going slack. If the string is cut at the instant the ball is at the top of the circle, how far to the left does the ball hit the ground? 80 cm 3 meters m = 100 gr
A string under tension of 50.0 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 2.5 m at a speed of 20.4 m/s on a frictionless table. The string passes through a small hole in the table at the center of this circle. As the string is pulled in, the speed of the rock increases. When the string is 1.00 m long and the speed is 51.0 m/s, the string breaks. What is the breaking strength, in Newtons, of the string?
A ball of mass m = 0.275kg swings in a vertical circular path on a string L= 0.85m long. If its speed is 5.2m/s at the top of the circle, what is the tension in the string there? If the string breaks when its tension exceeds 22.5N, what is the maximum the L ball can have at the bottom before that m happens?
A ball of mass 2 kg is tied to one end of a string of length 1 m and the other end of the string is held fixed. The ball then swings in a vertical circle of radius L. The speed of the ball at the m lowest point is 15 m/s. Find speed of the ball when the string makes angle 30° with vertical axis. (Take g = 10 m/s², cos 30 = 0.86 and sin 30 = 0.5) (a) 14.91 m/s (b) 7.87 m/s (c) 14.8 m/s (d) 9.89 m/s (e) 11.6 m/s
In the figure provided, a 142 g ball on a 73.1 cm rope is swung in a vertical circle about a point 204 cm above the ground. If the tension in the rope when the ball is at the very bottom of the circle is 13.0 N and a pair of scissors cuts the string directly below the point of support, how far to the right of where the string was cut does the ball hit the floor?
A ball is on the end of a string. The ball is being swung in a vertical circle at a constant speed. The length of the string is 1.25 m. The mass of the ball is 2.10 kg. The maximum tension the string can withstand is 61.0 N. What is the max speed of the ball without breaking the string when the ball is at the top of the circle (point a)?
