Chapter 8, Problem 57EAP
A 60 g ball is tied to the end of a 50-cm-long string and swung in a vertical circle. The center of the circle, as shown in FIGURE P8.57, is 150 cm above the floor. The ball is swung at the minimum speed necessary to make it over the top without the string going slack. If the string is released at the instant the ball is at the top of the loop, how far to the right does the ball hit the ground?

A 2.6 kg rock is swung in a circular path and
in a vertical plane on a 3.1 m length string.
At the top of the path, the angular velocity is
14 rad/s. What is the tension in the string at
that point?
A Stone Age hunter stands on a cliff overlooking a flat plain. He places a 1.0 kg rock in a sling, ties the sling to a 1.0-m-long vine, then swings the rock in a horizontal circle around his head. The plane of the motion is 25 m above the plain below. The tension in the vine increases as the rock goes faster and faster. Suddenly, just as the tension reaches 200 N, the vine snaps. If the rock is moving toward the cliff at this instant, how far out on the plain (from the base of the cliff) will it land?
Sylvia and Jadon now want to work a problem. Imagine a puck of mass 0.5 kg moving as in the simulation. Suppose that the tension in the string is 4.0 N, and that the radius of its circular path is 0.7 m. What will Jadon and Sylvia find for the tangential speed of the puck?
