Two wires are tied to the 2.0 kg sphere shown in FIGURE P8.45. The sphere revolves in a horizontal circle at constant speed.
a. For what speed is the tension the same in both wires?
b. What is the tension?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The tension in both wire should be same for the speed of 2.91 m/sec

b) Tension in wires at that speed is T =14.34 N

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step1 : Given Information

Mass of the ball =2 kg

The tension in each string is same.

The diagram shows the arrangement

02

Part(a) Step2 : Explanation

Lets first draw the free body diagram and then equate horizontal and vertical forces.

Horizontal components:

T1cos30+T2cos60=(mv2)/r....................(1)

Vertical components:

T1sin30+T2sin60=mg...............(2)

Given T1=T2 , So after solving equation (1) and(2), we get

v=rg...................(3)

Find the r using the triangle M L N and L N Q, we get

r= 0.866 m

Upon substituting in equation (3) we get

v=(0.866m)(9.8m/s2)v=2.91m/s

03

Part(b) Step1: Given information

Tension in both string are equal

Mass of the ball is 2 kg

04

Part(b) Step2: Explanation

Substitute T1=T2=T and m= 2kg and g=9.8m/s2 in equation (2)

T1sin30+T2sin60=mg

we get

Tsin30+Tsin60=2kg(9.8m/s2)1.366T=2kg(9.8m/s2)T=(2kg)(9.8m/s2)1.366T=14.34N

30 g ball rolls around a 40-cm-diameter L-shaped track, shown in FIGURE P8.53, at 60 rpm. What is the magnitude of the net force that the track exerts on the ball? Rolling friction can be neglected.
Hint: The track exerts more than one force on the ball

A jet plane is flying on a level course at constant speed. The engines are at full throttle.

a. What is the net force on the plane? Explain.

b. Draw a free-body diagram of the plane as seen from the side with the plane flying to the right. Name (don鈥檛 just label) any and all forces shown on your diagram.

c. Airplanes bank when they turn. Draw a free-body diagram of the plane as seen from behind as it makes a right turn.

d. Why do planes bank as they turn? Explain.

conical pendulum is formed by attaching a ball of mass m to a string of length L, then allowing the ball to move in a horizontal circle of radius r. FIGURE P8.47 shows that the string traces out the surface of a cone, hence the name.
a. Find an expression for the tension T in the string.
b. Find an expression for the ball鈥檚 angular speed v.
c. What are the tension and angular speed (in rpm) for a 500 g ball swinging in a 20-cm-radius circle at the end of a 1.0-m-long string?

In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against the wall. The cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. Then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! If all goes well, the passengers will 鈥渟tick鈥 to the wall and not slide. Clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70. A sign next to the entrance says 鈥淣o children under 30 kg allowed.鈥 What is the minimum angular speed, in rpm, for which the ride is safe?

Ramon and Sally are observing a toy car speed up as it goes around a circular track. Ramon says, 鈥淭he car鈥檚 speeding up, so there must be a net force parallel to the track.鈥 鈥淚 don鈥檛 think so,鈥 replies Sally. 鈥淚t鈥檚 moving in a circle, and that requires centripetal acceleration. The net force has to point to the center of the circle.鈥 Do you agree with Ramon, Sally, or neither? Explain.
