A bob of mass m is suspended from a fixed point with a massless string of length L (i.e., it is a pendulum). You are to investigate the motion in which the string moves in a cone with half-angle θ.
1. What tangential speed, v, must the bob have so that it moves in a horizontal circle with the string always making an angle θ from the vertical? Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables m, L, and θ, as well as the acceleration due to gravity g.
2. How long does it take the bob to make one full revolution (one complete trip around the circle)? Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables m, L, and θ, as well as the acceleration due to gravity g.

In a ballistic pendulum an object of mass m is fired with an initial speed v0 at a pendulum bob. The bob has a mass M, which is suspended by a rod of length L and negligible mass. After the collision, the pendulum and object stick together and swing to a maximum angular displacement θ as shown.Part AFind an expression for vo, the initial speed of the fired object.

A simple pendulum consists of a particle of mass m suspended by a long, massless wire of length L. Draw a free body diagram for the pendulum bob corresponding to a moment when the bob is located an angular displacement Φ away from (eg. to the right of) equilibrium. Determine an expression in terms of m, g, and Φ for the component of the net force on the bob that points tangent to the path of the bob. Is this...
26. We saw in Section 11.6 that a pendulum formed by a bob of mass m on the end of a massless string of length L is a harmonic oscillator, in the limit of small oscillations. Let us use an angle to locate the position of the pendulum bob, as shown in figure 11.6 and let us use w for the angular speed of the pendulum. Consider the variables m, g, L, θ, and w and find an expression for...
A mass m = 7.9 kg is suspended from a string of length L = 1.15 m. It revolves in a horizontal circle (see Figure). The tangential speed of the mass is 2.80 m/s. What is the angle θ between the string and the vertical (in degrees)?
Conical Pendulum A mass attached at the end of a massless string swings around in a horizontal circle (the string sweeps out a cone). Let θ be the angle the string makes with the vertical, l be the length of the string, h is the vertical height of the string, and r is the radius of the circle. So, l is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with h and r as legs, and θ as the upper angle. The...
