A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children swings from this rope that is 8.00 m long, his tangential speed at the bottom of the swing is 9.15 m/s. (a) What is the centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing? m/s2 (b) What provides the centripetal force that keeps the child moving in an arc? tension in the rope gravitational acceleration o the weight of the child the height of the tree

A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure CQ7.5. The bob moves without friction, swinging equally high on both sides. It moves from its turning point A through point B and reaches its maximum speed at point C. (a) At what point does the bob have non-zero radial acceleration and zero tangential acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (b) At what point does the bob have nonzero tangential acceleration and zero radial acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (c) At what point does the bob have both nonzero tangential and radial acceleration? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? Figure CQ7.5
A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure OQ6.4.

1.Circular Motion: Your evil cousin Throckmorton has come to visit for the weekend. His favourite pastime is skateboarding. You observe him skateboard from rest down a curved, frictionless ramp. If we treat Throckmorton and his skateboard as a particle, he moves through a quarter circle with radius 3.00m. Throcky and his skateboard have a mass 25.0kg. (a) Find his speed at the bottom of the ramp.(b) Find the normal force that acts on him at the bottom of the curve.
