A rock on the end of a .44 m long string is twirled around in a horizontal circle. The rock completes two complete revolutions in .735 s. What is the acceleration of the rock? Answer: 129 m/s^2
2. A string tied to a rock is being twirled around Fred's head at 5 cycles/s. If the rock has a mass of 500 g and the string is 50 cm long, what is the tension in the string? 3. A string tied to a rock is being twirled counter clockwise around Julie's head at 5 cycles/s. If the rock has a mass of 500 g, and the 50 cm string is cut, what direction does the rock fly? Explain....
A 910-g rock is whirled in a horizontal circle at the end of a 1.8-m-long string. A: If the breaking strength of the string is 110 N , what’s the minimum angle the string can make with the horizontal? B: At this minimum angle, what’s the rock’s speed?
0/1 pts Question 5 A rock of mass 4 kg is twirled around a string of radius 2 m with a speed of 10 m/s. Determine the tension (units of Newtons) in the string (neglect gravity). er 200 margin of error +/- 5%
A child ties a rock to a string and whirls it around in a horizontal circle. Part A Assuming a 1.46m -long string making 20.0? angle below the horizontal, find the speed of the rock. Express your answer with the appropriate units. Part B Find the period of its uniform circular motion. Express your answer with the appropriate units.
A 930g rock is whirled in a horizontal circle at the end of a 1.8-m long string. (See example 5.5 in the eText for a figure) If the breaking strength of the string is 120 N what's the minimum angle the string can make with the horizontal? At this minimum angle. what is the rock's speed?
A mass of 0.28 kg is fiixed to the end of a 0.93 m long string that is fixed at the other end. Iniitially at rest, the mass is made to rotate around the fixed end with an angular acceleration of 4.43 rad/s. After how many revolutions is the cetripetal force acting on the mass 502 N ?
1 5 P A 0.111 kg rock is attached to a 2.06 m long string and swung in a horizontal circle at a speed of 32.1 m/s. Find the tension in the string. Neglect the effect of gravity
A ball on the end of a string is whirled around in a horizontal circle of radius 0.340 m. The plane of the circle is 1.20 m above the ground. The string breaks and the ball lands 2.50 m (horizontally) away from the point on the ground directly beneath the ball's location when the string breaks. Find the radial acceleration of the ball during its circular motion. Magnitude m/s Direction
A 2.0-kg white rock is spinning at the end of a light (massless)
string in a circular path with a radius of 1.25 m on a horizontal
frictionless surface (figure below). The rock has a tangential
speed of the rock was 5.0 m/s. As you can imagine, the string
slowly winds around a vertical rod and several seconds later the
length of the string has shortened to 0.50 m. What is the tangental
speed of the rock just when the...
A small rock with mass 0.50 kg is tied to the free end of a light string that is 8.0 m long. The rock is moving in a horizontal circle and the string makes an angle of 37° with respect to the vertical. a. What is the radius r of the circular path of the rock? b. What is the tension in the string? c. What is the period of the rock’s motion, the time it takes to complete one...
