A student connects an object with mass m to a rope with a length r and then rotates the rope around her head parallel to the ground. The object takes 0.5 seconds to complete one rotation. Mass = 50 gLength of rope = 1.2 m
a) What is the object’s speed of rotation?
b) What is the object’s centripetal acceleration?
c) What tension force is required to maintain this motion?

(a) ω = 12.57 rad/s

(b) a = 189.5 m/s²

(c) T = 9.47 N

Explanation:

(a)

The speed of rotation is given by the formula:

ω = θ/t

where,

ω = speed of rotation = ?

θ = angular displacement = (1 rotation)(2π rad/1 rotation) = 2π rad

t = time taken = 0.5 s

Therefore,

ω = 2π rad/0.5 s

ω = 12.57 rad/s

(b)

The centripetal acceleration of the object is given by the formula:

a = v²/r

where,

a = Centripetal Acceleration = ?

v = linear speed of object = rω

r = length of rope = 1.2 m

Therefore,

a = (rω)²/r

a = rω²

a = (1.2 m)(12.57 rad/s)²

a = 189.5 m/s²

(c)

The tension required to maintain the motion is equal to the centripetal force:

Tension = Centripetal Force

T = ma

where,

m = mass of object = 50 g = 0.05 kg

Therefore,

T = (0.05 kg)(189.5 m/s²)

T = 9.47 N

answer: the direction of the wind is expressed as the direction from which the wind is blowing. for example, easterly winds blow from east to west, while westerly winds blow from west to east.
