In the figure provided, a 142 g ball on a 73.1 cm rope is swung in a vertical circle about a point 204 cm above the ground. If the tension in the rope when the ball is at the very bottom of the circle is 13.0 N and a pair of scissors cuts the string directly below the point of support, how far to the right of where the string was cut does the ball hit the floor?

You are designing the section of a roller coaster ride shown in the figure. Previous sections of the ride give the train a speed of 11.9 m/s11.9 m/s at the top of the incline, which is ℎ=38.7 mh=38.7 m above the ground. As any good engineer would, you begin your design with safety in mind. Your local government's safety regulations state that the riders' centripetal acceleration should be no more than ?=1.77 gn=1.77 g at the top of the hump and no more than ?=5.69 gN=5.69 g at the bottom of the loop. For this initial phase of your design, you decide to ignore the effects of friction and air resistance. What is the minimum radius you can use for the semi-circular hump? What is the minimum radius you can use for the vertical loop?
