- This time the pendulum is 1.37 m long. Suppose you start with the pendulum hanging vertically, at rest. You then give it a push so that it starts swinging with a speed of 1.12 m/s.

A 97 g ball bobbing up and down on the ocean as the waves roll by has a vertical position that can be described as a function of time by x(t) = cos(10t). What is the force on the ball at a time of 4.6 seconds? Note: The argument of the cosine function is in radians. Hint: Don't forget the sign of the force. F = 6.74 X√ Narrow_forward
- 3. A simple pendulum is suspended from the ceiling by means of a string of length 1.60 m. Now you start with the pendulum at 16.6 degrees with respect to the vertical, but rather than releasing it from rest, you give it a push downward. It swings to the other side, and reaches a maximum angle of 55.4 degrees with respect to the vertical. What must have been the initial speed of the pendulum just after you pushed it? 4.78 m/s 3.50 m/s 3.68 m/s 1.14 m/sarrow_forwardIn a ballistic pendulum, the following data is given: m = 60.5 +/- 0.1 g for mass M = 210 +/- 10 g for pendulum mass θ = 35º +/- 1º for maximum deflection angle r= 30.0 +/- 0.1cm for distance from the pivot to the center of the pendulum bob Calculate v0 using the equations v0 = ((M + m)/m)(2gh)1/2 and h = r (1 - cosθ) [height maximum deflection].arrow_forwardH2. A simple pendulum has a particle of mass m at the end of a light rod of length 1. The other end of the rod is attached to a fixed point O, at the origin of polar coordinates (r, 0). The particle is at position (r, 0) with 0 = 0 corresponding to the particle being vertically below O. (a) Use the formulae for acceleration in polar coordinates, a = ( − rġ²) + (2rė + rö)ê to show that cos 0 + A, 8 T = mg cos 0 + mlė², where T' is the tension in the rod. Use the relation (0²) = 200 to deduce that 2g ². = 1 and 0 == sin sin 0, (1) where A is a constant. If the particle is instantaneously at rest ( = 0) when the rod is horizontal, find and T when the rod is vertical. How does the tension in the vertical position (which is also the maximal tension) depend on the rod's length /? (b) Assume the particle is subject to linear air resistance av. Use the expression of the velocity in polar coordinates v=rf+rẻÔ (2) together with (1) to write the equations of motion in polar coordinates. Show…arrow_forward
