- A bowling ball weighing 71.2 N is attached to the ceiling by a 3.80-m rope. The ball is pulled to one side and released; it then swings back and forth as a pendulum. As the rope swings through the vertical, the speed of the bowling ball is 4.20 m/s. (a) Draw a Free Body Diagram. (b) What is the acceleration of the bowling ball, in magnitude and direction, at this instant? (c) What is the tension in the rope at this instant?arrow_forwardKinesiologists—scientists who study human motion—can measure the forces that act on runners as they round a curve. The forces on a runner’s feet are a vertical normal force that, on average, serves to counteract gravity, and a static friction force parallel to the ground and pointing toward the center of the runner’s circular path. The average value of this inward-pointing force is measured to be 600 N for a 75 kg runner rounding a curve that has a 2.5 m radius. What is this runner’s speed?arrow_forwardDavid throws a 50 kg cart down a ramp with an initial speed of vi = 6 m/s.
