A0.400-kg object is swung in a circular path and in a vertical plane on a 0.500-m-length string. if the angular speed at the bottom is 8.00 rad/s, what is the tension in the string when the object is at the bottom of the circle?

T = 16.72 N

Explanation:

When the object is swung in a circular path, and in a vertical plane, there are two forces external to the object acting on it at any time: the gravity (which is always downward) and the tension in the string (which always points towards the center of the circle).

At the bottom of the circle, the tension is directly upward, so these two forces, are opposite each other, and the difference between them is the centripetal force , which at this point, keeps the object swinging in a circle.

This is the point of the trajectory where T is maximum.

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law, choosing an axis vertical (y-axis) being the upward direction the positive one, as follows:

T- m*g = m*a

The acceleration, at the bottom of the circle, is only normal (as there are no forces in the horizontal direction) , and is equal to the centripetal acceleration, as follows:

ac =  v² / r = ω²*r⇒ T- m*g = m*ω²*r

Replacing by the givens, we can solve for T as follows:

T = m* (ω²*r+g) = 0.4 kg*((8.00)² rad/sec²*0.5m)+9.8 m/s²) = 16.72 N

the journeys of marquette, joliet and la salle a) new france expand.

all three of these explorers explored the midwest and the area around the great lakes, which they subsequently claimed for france.

this was a big portion of territory and expanded new france which before then only consisted of quebec province in northeastern canada
