GO Figure 6-53 shows a conical pendulum, in which the bob (the small object at the lower end of the cord) moves in a horizontal circle at constant speed. (The cord sweeps out a cone as the bob rotates.) The bob has a mass of 0.040 kg, the string has length L = 0.90 m and negligible mass, and the bob follows a circular path of circumference 0.94 m. What are (a) the tension in the string and (b) the period of the motion?

- A block of mass m = 10.5 kg rests on an inclined plane with a coefficient of static friction of µ, = 0.11 between the block and the plane. The inclined plane is L = 6.9 m long and it has a height of h = 3.3 m at its tallest point. Write an expression, in terms of 0, the mass m, the coefficient of static friction u, and the gravitational constant g, for the magnitude of the force due to static friction, F, just before the block begins to slide. Will the block slide?arrow_forwardQuestion 8: A horizontal external force F is applied to block of mass 3m so that it moves horizontally as shown in Figure 4. The coefficient of friction force between the block of mass 4m and the ground is 3u while the coefficient of friction force between the blocks is u (g is the gravitational acceleration.).

The cord between the pouch and the person’s hand has negligible mass and will break when the tension in the cord is 33.0 N or more. Suppose the slingthrower could gradually increase the speed of the stone. (a) Will the breaking occur at the lowest point of the circle or at the highest point? (b) At what speed of the stone will that breaking occur?arrow_forward
- An inventor designs a pendulum clock using a bob with mass m at the end of a thin wire of length L. Instead of swinging back and forth, the bob is to move in a horizontal circle at constant speed v, with the wire making a fixed angle b with the vertical direction . This is called a conical pendulum because the suspending wire traces out a cone. Find the tension F in the wire and the period T (the time for one revolution of the bob).arrow_forwardAsap likearrow_forwardA skate park is formed by two semicircles of radius R1 = 8.3 m and R2 = 1.0 m and a flat central part, as shown in the following figure. The flat part has a length L = 3.6 m. The semicircles are tangent to the horizontal in B and C and to the vertical in A and D. There is no friction in the curved parts and in the flat part the coefficient of kinetic friction is μC = 0.2. A block with mass m = 3.2 kg is dropped from A. Suppose the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m / s2. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the block as it passes through point B the second time? Choose one: a. 45,4 m/sb.

- A 0.50-kg object moves on a horizontal frictionless circular track with a radius of 2.5 m. An external force of 3.0 N, always tangent to the track, causes the object to speed up as it goes around. If it starts from rest, then at the end of one revolution the radial component of the force of the track on it is:arrow_forwardA completely smooth table has a circular end with radius R=40.0 cm. The height of the table is h= 1.00 m. A body is thrown on the table and it is desired that the body does not slide down the circular part, but at the point where the circular part begins, said body falls off. Complying with the above, find the distance where the body falls with respect to the table (g=9.8 m/s2). If you think that information is missing, you can assume it.arrow_forwardA 0.5 kg object moves in a horizontal circular track with a radius of 2.5 m.

- You and your family take a road trip on a long holiday weekend. In a certain section of the trip where the road is particularly uneven, the car goes over a bump that is curved downward with a radius of 23.5 m. See diagram below. The mass of the car and its passengers is 1400 kg. (a) When the car is at the highest point of the bump its speed is 6.30 m/s. Determine the magnitude, in N, and the direction of the force exerted by the road on the car at this highest point. N magnitude direction ---Select--- (b) If the speed at the highest point is above a certain maximum value the car will lose contact with the road. Calculate this maximum speed in m/s. m/sarrow_forwardA plastic disc is flicked up a sloping board. It has an initial speed of 1.6 ms ¹, but gradually slows down. The board is inclined at 18° to the horizontal, and when the disc is flicked its centre is 0.3 m from the top of the board, as shown below.
