A child is swinging a 380-g ball at the end of a 71.0-cm-long string in a vertical circle. The string can withstand a tension of 11.0 N before breaking. (A): What is the tension in the string when the ball is at the top of the circle if its speed at that point is 3.70 m/s? (B): What is the maximum speed the ball can have at the bottom of the circle if the string does not break?

A light string can support a stationary hanging load of 25.0 kg before breaking. An object of mass m = 3.00 kg attached to the string rotates on a frictionless, horizontal table in a circle of radius r = 0.800 m, and the other end of the string is held fixed as in Figure P5.17. What range of speeds can the object have before the string breaks? Figure P5.17

The figure shows an object of mass m = 4 kg moving in a vertical circle attached to a massless string of length L = 0.6 m. When the object is at position A, it has unknown speed v0. If the only forces acting on the object are gravity and the tension in the string, and the tension in the string at position A is 240 N, what is the tension in the string when the object is at position D (at the top)?
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.
