Answer to Problem 22SSC

  322.67N

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The 40.0kg stone is whirled horizontally at a speed of 2.2m/s in a radius of 0.60m.

Formula used:

The centripetal force acting on an object is:

  F=mac

Where, ac=v2r is the centripetal acceleration, v is the velocity of the object and r is the radius.

Calculation:

Now, as the stone is whirling in a circle, the tension in the string is getting balanced by the centripetal force.

  T=Fc=mac=mv2r

Using given values in above equation, solve:

  T=40(2.2)20.60=322.67N

Conclusion:

Thus, the tension in the string is 322.67 N .
