A man whirls a 0.20-kg piece of lead attached to the end of a string of length 0.500 m in a circular path and in a vertical plane. If the man maintains a constant speed of 4.00 m/s, what is the tension in the string when the lead is (a) at the top of the circular path? (b) at the bottom of the circular path? (Sec Section 7.4.)
In Figure P3.55, a spider is resting after starting to spin its web. The gravitational force on the spider makes it exert a downward force of 0.150 N on the junction of the three strands of silk. The junction is supported by different tension forces in the two strands above it so that the resultant force on the junction is zero. The two sloping strands are perpendicular, and we have chosen the x and y directions to be along them. The tension Tx is 0.127 N. Find (a) the tension Ty, (b) the angle the x axis makes with the horizontal, and (c) the angle the y axis makes with the horizontal.
A mass of 0.50 kg hangs from the end of a rope that rotates in vertical circles of radius 2.0 m. When the string is horizontal, the speed of the mass is 8.0 m / s. What is the tension of the string in this position?
On the International Space Station an, object with mass m=163g is attached to a massless string of length L=0.69m. The string can handle a tension of FT=8.02Nbefore breaking. The object undergoes uniform circular motion, being spun around by the string in a horizontal plane. 1What is the maximum speed, in meters per second, the mass can have before the string breaks? 2)

A 0.32 kg ball is attached to a 1.4 m long string, and moves in a circular path on a smooth horizontal table. If the ball takes 0.6 seconds for each complete revolution, what is the tension in the string in N?
In addition to the remarkable top speed, cheetahs have impressive cornering abilities. In one study, the sideways force on the feet of a 50 kg cheetah, with its claws dug into the ground, was found to be 960 N. What was the radius of the turn if the cheetah was running at 20 m/s?
The following situations imply that the net force on the object is zero, except:a. a satellite orbiting the earth at a constant speedb. a raindrop falling at its terminal velocity c. a car driving straight on a highway at a steady 100 km/hd. All of these choices imply zero net force.
A child lying on her back experiences 55.0 N tension in the muscles on both sides of her neck when she raises her head to look past her toes. Later, sliding feet first down a water slide at terminal speed 5.70 m/s and riding high on the outside wall of a horizontal curve of radius 2.40 m, she raises her head again to look forward past her toes. Find the tension in the muscles on both sides of her neck while she is sliding.
A roller coaster travels in a circular path, (a) Identify the forces on a passenger at the top of the circular loop that cause centripetal acceleration. Show the direction of all forces in a sketch, (b) Identify the forces on the passenger at the bottom of the loop that produce centripetal acceleration. Show these in a sketch, (c) Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), at what point, top or bottom, should the seat exert the greatest force on the passenger? (d) Assume the speed of the roller coaster is 4.00 m/s at the top of the loop of radius 8.00 m. Find the force exerted by the seat on a 70.0-kg passenger at the top of the loop. Then, assume the speed remains the same at the bottom of the loop and find the force exerted by the seat on the passenger at this point. Are your answers consistent with your choice of answers for parts (a) and (b)?
A space station, in the form of a wheel 120 m in diameter, rotates to provide an artificial gravity of 3.00 m/s2 for persons who walk around on the inner wall of the outer rim. Find the rate of the wheels rotation in revolutions per minute that will produce this effect.
The following objects are moving in uniform circular motion. Draw a free-body diagram for each object and identify the force responsible for the centripetal acceleration. Object 1.
