**Text:**A steel ball is attached to a string and is swung in a circular path in a horizontal plane as illustrated in the accompanying figure. At the point P indicated in the figure, the string suddenly breaks near the ball.If these events are observed from directly above as in the figure, which path would the ball most closely follow after the string breaks?**Diagram Explanation:**The diagram shows a circular path with the breaking point of the string marked as point P. The steel ball is shown moving in this circular path. The moment after the string breaks is considered, and five possible paths (labeled A, B, C, D, and E) are shown as dashed lines extending from point P.- Path A: Straight line path vertically upward from point P.- Path B: Straight line path moving diagonally to the right and upward.- Path C: Straight horizontal path to the right.- Path D: Straight line path moving diagonally to the right and downward.- Path E: Straight downward path from point P.**Options:**- O A- O B- O C- O D- O E

Given data: A steel ball is attached to the spring Ball swung in horizontal circular plane At point P the string suddenly breaks near the ball Required: The direction of the ball's velocity just after the string breaks In uniform circular motion, the direction of the linear velocity is always tangential to the circular path of the motion. At point P, if we draw a tangent it will be in the direction of (B) So the direction of the velocity just after the string breaks at point P is towards (B) Answer: B

A marksman fires a practice round from A toward a target B. If the target diameter is 140 mm and the target center is at the same altitude as the end of the rifle barrel, determine the range of "shallow" launch angles for which the round will strike the target. Neglect aerodynamic drag and assume that the round is directed along the vertical centerline of the target. (Note: The word "shallow" indicates a low-flying trajectory for the round.)

The two pieces of the spacecraft are returned to their initial configuration with a period of 226.8 seconds. A radiation leak is detected in one of the engines. An escape pod from each section of the spacecraft are ejected as indicated in the figure. Notice that the direction of rotation for the two pieces of the spacecraft is also indicated in the figure. The escape pods each have a mass of 13200 kg and are ejected with a speed of 79.13 m/s along the directions indicated in the figure with θ = 27 degrees. What is the new period of the remaining spacecraft after the two escape pods are ejected? *Original Scenario* - One way to provide artificial gravity (i.e., a feeling of weight) on long space voyages is to separate a spacecraft into two parts at the ends of a long cable, and set them rotating about their center of mass. A craft has been separated into two parts with a mass of 87900 kg each, at the ends of a cable with their centers of mass 91 m apart, rotating around the center…

(LO-2,LO-4,LO-6) A ball with a mass of 1.6 kg is attached to a clockwise rotating rod by two ropes as shown in the figure (the mass of the ropes is negligible). The ball is rotated at constant speed. The lenght of ropes is 1.5 m, the distance d is also 1.5 m. The tension on the first rope is T = 40 N. What is the speed of ball in units of m/s? (g=9.8 m/s?)

An astronaut taking a spacewalk outside the International Space Station which is in a circular orbit about the earth at an altitude of 420 km discards a spent battery by throwing it radially outward away from the ISS and the earth with a velocity of 10 meters/sec. a) Draw the trajectory of the battery relative to the ISS over one complete orbit of the ISS. b) Was it a good idea to discard the battery this way?
The shell was fired at an initial velocity of 25 meters per second at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizon and was at a distance of 12.5 meters from the target and 1.5 meters above the surface of the ground. Neglect the air resistance and find the following: 1 At a height that will attach the shell to the target in front of it 2 What time does the shell spend until the target collides 3 Will the missile be in an up or down state when hitting the target?

A 50-lb sphere A with a radius of 4.5 in. is moving with a velocity of magnitude v0 = 6 ft/s. Sphere A strikes a 4.6-lb sphere B that has a radius of 2 in., is hanging from an inextensible cord, and is initially at rest. Knowing that sphere B swings to a maximum height of h= 0.75 ft, determine the coefficient of restitution between the two spheres.
A 12-kg mass package is in a non-atmosphere asteroid of mass 1.7 x 1014 kg and radius 2,000 m. The package is released with a powerful spring whose stiffness is 315 N / m. After being launched, the package is observed to have a speed of 3.0 m / s when it is at a distance of 5,000 m from the center of the asteroid. Calculate how much the spring was compressed to launch the package?
