A 139.6 g ball at the end of a string is revolving uniformly in a horizontal circle of radius 0.493 m. The ball makes 3.16 revolutions in a second. What is the ball speed?
The figure shows a 100 g puck revolving in a 20 cm radius circle on a frictionless table. The string passes through a hole in the center of the table and is tied to two 200 g weights. The lower weight is a light bag filled with sand. Suppose a pin pokes a hole in the bag and the sand slowly leaks out while the puck is revolving. What will be the puck's speed after all of the sand is gone?
How many years does it take for planet to go around the sun if its distance is 2.1 times away from the sun as the earth is.
A 80 kg person, from the top of a 13 m cliff, throws a 100 g ball at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. With what speed will the ball hit the ground below? (g = 9.8 m/s2).
