ith the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.9 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward in a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle θ with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle θ.

Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle ? with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle ?.
A pendulum consists of a small object hanging from the ceiling at the end of a string of negligible mass. The string has a length of 0.76 m. With the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.5 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward in a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle θ with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle θ.
Tarzan plans to cross a gorge by swinging in an arc from a hanging vine. If his arms are capable of exerting a force of 1350 N on the rope, what is the maximum speed he can tolerate at the lowest point of his swing? His mass is 78 kg and the vine is 5.2 m long.

A water slide is constructed so that swimmers, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leave the end of the slide traveling horizontally. As the drawing shows, one person hits the water 5.00 m from the end of the slide in a time of 0.627 s after leaving the slide. Ignore friction and air resistance, find the height H in the drawing.
A horizontal spring with spring constant 230 N/mN/m is compressed by 10 cmcm and then used to launch a 250 gg box across the floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.23. What is the box's launch speed? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
An object with mass 0.60 kg is suspended from the ceiling at the end of a 2.0 m long string. When the mass is pulled to the side (at an unknown angle) and released, you measure the speed to be 4.0 m/s at the lowest point of its path. What maximum angle does the string make with the vertical as the object swings up? Note: air resistance can be ignored. Options 69 degrees 77 degrees 47 degrees 61 degrees 54 degrees 50 degrees
As a simple pendulum swings back and forth, the forces acting on the suspended object are the gravitational force, the tension in the supporting cord, and air resistance. Describe the work done by the gravitational force while the pendulum is swinging. a. Positive in increasing velocity on the downswing; negative in decreasing velocity on the upswing b. Negative in increasing velocity on the downswing; positive in decreasing velocity on the upswing c. Positive in decreasing velocity on the downswing; negative in increasing velocity on the upswing d. Negative in increasing velocity on the downswing; negative in decreasing velocity on the upswing A satellite in circular orbit around the Earth moves constant speed. This orbit is maintained by the force of gravity between the Earth and the satellite, yet no work is done on the satellite. How is this possible? a. No work is done if there is no contact between objects. b. No work is done because there is no gravity in space. c. No work…

A speedboat weighing 644 lbs is powered by a constant force of 40 lbs. Friction between the boat and the water is negligible, but there is wind resistance proportional to the velocity of the boat and is 10 lbs. for a speed of 5 fps. Assuming the boat started from rest, find the speed after 10 sec.
To form a pendulum, a 0.092 kg ball is attached to one end of a rod of length 0.62 m and negligible mass, and the other end of the rod is mounted on a pivot. The rod is rotated until it is straight up, and then it is released from rest so that it swings down around the pivot. When the ball reaches its lowest point, what are (a) its speed and (b) the tension in the rod? Next, the rod is rotated until it is horizontal, and then it is again released from rest. (c) At what angle from the vertical does the tension in the rod equal the weight of the ball? (d) If the mass of the ball is increased, does the answer to (c) increase, decrease, or remain the same?
