Two wires are tied to the 300 g sphere shown in FIGURE P8.46. The sphere revolves in a horizontal circle at a constant speed of 7.5 m/s. What is the tension in each of the wires?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Tension in each wire is T1 = 14.17 N and T2=8.30 N

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Mass of sphere= 300 g = 0.3 kg

Length of wire is 1 m

Speed v= 7.5 m/s.

02

Explanation

First draw the free body diagram and then equate forces

Horizontal Components:

T1cosθ+T2cosθ=mv2R....................................(1)

Vertical components

T1sinθ-T2sinθ-mg=0..................................(2)

From trigonometric ratio we get

R=0.866 m

Solve equation(1) and (2)

Multiply by sinθ to equation(1) and by cosθ to equation (2), we get

T1cosθsinθ+T2cosθsinθ=mv2Rsinθ..........(3)

T1sinθcosθ-T2sinθcosθ-mgcosθ=0........(4)

By adding equation (3) and (4) , we get

T1=(msin2θ)((v2sinθR)+gcosθ)

Substitute the given values we get

T1=(0.3kgsin2(30o))(((7.5m/s)2(sin30o)0.866m)+((9.8m/s2)cosθ)T1=14.17N

Substitute the value of T1 in the equation (2) and solve for T2, we get

localid="1649070587054" T2sinθ=T1sinθ-mgT2sin30o=14.17Nsin30o-(0.3kg)(9.8m/s2)SolveforT2,weget.T2=8.30N

A motorcycle daredevil plans to ride up a 2.0-m-high, 20°ramp, sail across a 10-m-wide pool filled with hungry crocodiles, and land at ground level on the other side. He has done this stunt many times and approaches it with confidence. Unfortunately, the motorcycle engine dies just as he starts up the ramp. He is going 11m/sat that instant, and the rolling friction of his rubber tires (coefficient 0.02) is not negligible. Does he survive, or does he become crocodile food? Justify your answer by calculating the distance he travels through the air after leaving the end of the ramp.

A 2.0kgprojectile with initial velocity v→=8.0ı^m/sexperiences the variable force F→=-2.0tl^+4.0t2ȷ^N, where t is in s.

a. What is the projectile’s speed at t=2.0s?

b. At what instant of time is the projectile moving parallel to they-axis?

A 500 g steel block rotates on a steel table while attached to a 1.2-m-long hollow tube as shown in FIGURE CP8.70. Compressed air fed through the tube and ejected from a nozzle on the back of the block exerts a thrust force of 4.0 N perpendicular to the tube.

The maximum tension the tube can withstand without breaking is 50 N. If the block starts from rest, how many revolutions does it make before the tube breaks?

The 10 mg bead in FIGURE P8.48 is free to slide on a frictionless wire loop. The loop rotates about a vertical axis with angular velocity ω. If ω is less than some critical value ωc the bead sits at the bottom of the spinning loop. When ω > ωc the bead moves out to some angle θ

  1. What is ωc in rpm for the loop shown in the figure?
  2. At what value of ωc in rpm is θ=30o

A 100gbead slides along a frictionless wire with the parabolic shape y=2m-1x2.

a. Find an expression for ay, the vertical component of acceleration, in terms of x, vx, and ax. Hint: Use the basic definitions of velocity and acceleration.

b. Suppose the bead is released at some negative value ofx and has a speed of 2.3m/s as it passes through the lowest point of the parabola. What is the net force on the bead at this instant? Write your answer in component form
