A small ball of mass m is suspended by a string of length I. The Sumg makes an angie ß with the vertical. The ball revolves in a circle with an unknown constant angular speed w. The orbital plane of the ball is at a height h above the ground. Let g be the gravitational constant. You may ignore air resistance and the size of the ball. g m +y

Suppose that humans have created a colony outside of our solar system on a planet called Wfirst21. Wfirst21 has a mass of 1.45×1025 kg and a day that lasts 24.1 h (which defines the rotational period of the planet). The colony is located on the planet's equator. The colonists set up a communications satellite which orbits Wfirst21. The satellite has a circular orbit that keeps it positioned directly above the colony. Calculate the radius ?r of the satellite's orbit in kilometers.
At amusement parks, there is a popular ride where the floor of a rotating cylindrical room falls away, leaving the backs of the riders “plastered” against the wall. Suppose the radius of the room is 7.9 m and the coefficient of friction between the rider and the wall is 0.839, what is the minimum the safe speed of the wall for the rider not to drop when the floor falls away. Use g=9.8 m/s2.

NASA scientists suggest using rotating cylindrical craft to recreate gravity while in a weightless environment. Consider such a craft that has a diameter of d = 124 m. What is the speed v, in meters per second, the craft must rotate at its outer edge to recreate the force of gravity on earth g. At what rate, in revolutions per minute, is the station rotating?

At amusement parks, there is a popular ride where the floor of a rotating cylindrical room falls away, leaving the backs of the riders “plastered” against the wall. Suppose the radius of the room is 3.122 m and the coefficient of friction between the rider and the wall is 0.47, what is the minimum the safe speed of the wall for the rider not to drop when the floor falls away. Use g=9.8 m/s2.
A conical pendulum is formed by attaching a ball of mass m to a string of length L, then allowing the ball to move in a horizontal circle of radius r. The string traces out the surface of a cone, hence the name. Find an expression for the tension T in the string (expressing the answers in terms of the variables L, m, r). Find an expression for the ball's angular speed (in terms of the variables L and r). Lastly, what is the tension for a 500 gg ball swinging in a 20-cmcm-radius circle at the end of a 1.0-mm-long string? Given the peculiar circumstances, I was forced to self-teach this material and I am incredibly confused as to how to approach these problems. Can you please help me? Thank you :)
Suppose that humans have created a colony outside of our solar system on a planet called Cheops5. Cheops5 has a mass of 2.25×10^25 kg and a day that lasts 29.9 h (which defines the rotational period of the planet). The colony is located on the planet's equator. The colonists set up a communications satellite which orbits Cheops5. The satellite has a circular orbit that keeps it positioned directly above the colony. Calculate the radius ?r of the satellite's orbit in kilometers.
