A ball on the end of a string is whirled around in a horizontal circle of radius 0.478 m. The plane of the circle is 1.02 m above the ground. The string breaks and the ball lands 2.5 m away from the point on the ground directly beneath the ball’s location when the string breaks. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Find the centripetal acceleration of the ball during its circular motion. Answer in units of m/s 2 .

Tafari worked one summer on a ship that set weather buoys in the ocean. he watched how one of the buoys moved in the water. describe which parts of the wave would cause the buoy to bob up and down. which wave property determined how fast the buoys bobbed in the water? he observed that when the wind blew harder, the ocean waves were larger, and the buoys moved away from the ship. what effect, if any, did the waves have on how far the buoys moved? explain your answer.

Amerry-go-round of radius r, shown in the figure, is rotating at constant angular speed. the friction in its bearings is so small that it can be ignored. a sandbag of mass m is dropped onto the merry-go-round, at a position designated by r. the sandbag does not slip or roll upon contact with the merry-go-round. how would you rank the following different combinations of m and r on the basis of the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the sandbag "sticks" to the merry-go-round from largest to smallest. a) m = 10kg, r = 0.25r b) m = 20kg, r = 0.25r c) m = 10kg, r = 0.50r d) m = 10kg, r = 1.0r e) m = 15kg, r = 0.75r f) m = 40kg, r = 0.25r
