A small object with mass 0.200 kg swings back and forth on the lower end of a light rope that is 3.00 m long. The upper end of the rope is attached to the ceiling. As the object swings through its lowest position, where the rope is vertical, the speed of the object is 3.30 m/s. At this point in the motion, what is the tension in the rope? (Use g=9.80m/s2.)

- A pendulum consists of a small object called a bob hanging from a light cord of fixed length, with the top end of the cord fixed, as represented in Figure OQ5.6. The bob moves without friction, swinging equally high on both sides. It moves from its turning point A through point B and reaches its maximum speed at point C. (a) Of these points, is there a point where the bob has nonzero radial acceleration and zero tangential acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (b) Of these points, is there a point where the bob has nonzero tangential acceleration and zero radial acceleration? If so, which point? What is the direction of its total acceleration at this point? (c) Is there a point where the bob has no acceleration? If so, which point?

(The director assures you it will all be very exciting.) The drawing below shows the situation. The SUV has four-wheel drive (see problem N5D.1), and the coefficients of friction between the tires and the pier’s surface are us =3/4 and uk = 1/2. Calculate the length L (as a fraction or multiple of D) of the run along the pier that you will need for the SUV to make it to the ferry. Ignore air drag.arrow_forward
