Question
A model airplane of mass 0.820 kg flies with a speed of 35.0 m/s in a horizontal circle at the end of a 54.0-m control wire as shown in Figure (a). The forces exerted on the airplane are shown in Figure (b): the tension in the control wire, the gravitational force, and aerodynamic lift that acts at θ = 20.0° inward from the vertical. Compute the tension in the wire, assuming it makes a constant angle of θ = 20.0° with the horizontal.

The boat's owner loves high speed, but does not really want to go anywhere. So the owner revs up the boat's engine, makes a lot of noise, and runs the boat in circles around the buoy with the cable supplying all the necessary centripetal force. When the tension of the cable is steady at 13700 N,13700 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat? Different physics textbooks treat drag force somewhat differently and use different formulas. For the present purpose, take the water's drag force on the boat to be (450 kg/m)×?2,(450 kg/m)×v2, where ?v denotes the boat's speed.

- A speedboat with a mass of 505 kg (including the driver) is tethered to a fixed buoy by a strong 29.7 m cable. The boat's owner loves high speed, but does not really want to go anywhere. So the owner revs up the boat's engine, makes a lot of noise, and runs the boat in circles around the buoy with the cable supplying all the necessary centripetal force. When the tension of the cable is steady at 12300 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat? Different physics textbooks treat drag force somewhat differently and use different formulas. For the present purpose, take the water's drag force on the boat to be (450 kg/m) × v², where v denotes the boat's speed.

If the slider is observed to have a speed of 10.6 ft/sec as it passes position B, determine (a) the magnitude N of the force exerted by the fixed rod on the slider and (b) the rate v at which the speed of the slider is changing (positive if speeding up, negative if slowing down).

Initially it moves in a circle of radius Ro = 0.6 m with a speed 1.5 m/s. It is held in its path by a string that passes through a small hole at the center of the circle. The string is then pulled down a distance of 0.12 m.( Ro - R = 0.12 m.) It is pulled so slowly that the object continues to move in a circle of continually decreasing radius. 1) While the string in pulling in the block, which of the following qualities of the block is conserved (circle all that are correct): a) Rotational kinetic energy (b) Angular momentum c) Linear momentum d) Mechanical energy e) None of the above √/2) What is the final linear speed of the block (in m/sec)? 1.5 m/sec (3) How much work was done by the force that pulled on the string?0.915arrow_forwardOne end of a cord is fixed and a small 0.550-kg object is attached to the other end, where it swings in a section of a vertical circle of radius 1.50 m, as shown in the figure below.
