A speedboat with a mass of 545 kg545 kg (including the driver) is tethered to a fixed buoy by a strong 32.7 m32.7 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 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. Ignore any drag force on the cable.

An owner of a speedboat loves high speed but doesn't want to go anywhere. So he tethers the speedboat to a fixed buoy by a strong cable of length 40.0 m40.0 m, which supplies all the centripetal force to run the boat in circles around the buoy. When the tension in the cable is steady at 13500 N13500 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat? Assume that the mass of the speedboat (including the driver) is 645 kg645 kg. Take the water's drag force to be (450 kg/m)×v2(450 kg/m)×v2, where vv denotes the boat's speed. Ignore any drag force on the cable. Be sure to include the free-body diagram for the boat.
A stone has a mass of 8.79 g and is wedged into the tread of an automobile tire, as the drawing shows. The coefficient of static friction between the stone and each side of the tread channel is 0.818. When the tire surface is rotating at 10.9m/s, the stone flies out the tread. The magnitude FN of the normal force that each side of the tread channel exerts on the stone is 2.46 N. Assume that only static friction supplies the centripetal force, and determines the radius r of the tire (in terms of m)
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 ownerloves 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 runsthe boat in circles around the buoy with the cable supplying all the necessary centripetal force. When the tension of the cable issteady at 12300 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat
a 1.34 kg ball is connected by means of two massless strings, each of length L = 1.70 m, to a vertical, rotating rod. The strings are tied to the rod with separation d = 1.70 m and are taut. The tension in the upper string is 35 N. What are the (a) tension in the lower string, (b) magnitude of the net force on the ball, and (c) speed of the ball? (d) What is the direction of the net force?
Sally wants to hang up some decorations on the side of her house, so she props up a ladder of length L = 3m against a wall at an angle of θ = 50° with respect to the horizontal. The ground is somewhat icy, where the coefficient of static friction between the ground and the ladder’s feet is µ = 0.55; while the wall of her house can be considered frictionless. If Sally has a mass of 60kg and the ladder has a mass of 80kg, what is the max distance that she can climb up the length of the ladder without it slipping? You may assume the ground is perfectly flat, and the wall is perpendicular to the ground.
The accompanying figure shows a frictionless channel in the shape of a segment of a circle with center at "O". The channel has been anchored to a frictionless horizontal table top. You are looking down at the table. Forces exerted by the air are negligible. A ball is shot at high speed into the channel at "p" and exits at "r." Consider the following distinct forces: A downward force of gravity. A force exerted by the channel pointing from q to O. A force in the direction of motion. A force pointing from O to q. Which of the forces is (are) acting on the ball when it is within the frictionless channel at position "q"? 1 only 1 and 2 1 and 3 1, 2, and 3 1, 3, and 4
Christian is making a Tyrolean traverse as shown in the figure. That is, he traverses a chasm by stringing a rope between a tree on one side of the chasm and a tree on the opposite side, 25 m away. The rope must sag sufficiently so it won't break. Assume the rope can provide a tension force of up to 26 kN before breaking, and use a "safety factor" of 10 (that is, the rope should only be required to undergo a tension force of 2.6 kN) at the center of the Tyrolean traverse.

The junction is supported by different tension forces in the two strands above it so that the resultant force on the junction is zero.
