A small 0.18 kg metal ball is tied to a very light (essentially massless) string that is 0.60 m long. The string is attached to the ceiling so as to form a pendulum. The pendulum is set into motion by releasing it from rest at an angle of 50 degrees with the vertical. I solved that the speed of the ball when it reaches the bottom of the arc is 2.0 m/s and the tension of the string is 3.0 N What is the centripetal acceleration of the ball at this point?

During the packaging process, a can of soda of mass m = 0.4 kg moves down a surface inclined 20° relative to the horizontal, as shown in the figure below. The difference between the initial height of the can and the final height of the can is dz = 2 m. The can is acted upor by a constant force R parallel to the incline and by the force of gravity. The magnitude of the constant force R is 0.05 N. Ignoring friction between the can and the inclined surface, determine the can's change in kinetic energy, in J, and whether it is increasing or decreasing. Let g= 9.8 m/s². Initial location m R = 0.05 N Final location dz 20°
