A mass hangs on the end of a massless rope. The pendulum is held horizontal and released from rest. When the mass reaches the bottom of its path it is moving at a speed v = 2.4 m/s and the tension in the rope is T = 14.9 N.

1) How long is the rope?

2) What is the mass?

3) If the maximum mass that can be used before the rope breaks is mmax = 1.2 kg, what is the maximum tension the rope can withstand? (Assuming that the mass is still released from the horizontal.)

4) Now a peg is placed 4/5 of the way down the pendulum

According to social exchange theory, altruistic behaviors benefit the individual who performs them.

Samir watches a 100-minute movie on his spaceship. maria's spaceshipe flies in the same direction as samir's spaceship but she observes his move to last 125 minutes and his spaceship to be 40 m long. how long does samir observe his own spaceship to be? according to an observer on earth, planet x is stationary. maria and samir depart earth on their spaceships at the same time, each flying at 0.5c. maria flies toward planet x and samir flies in the opposite direction. according to maria, her voyage to planet x takes 9 years. how many years does marias voyage take according to samir?

You are given a vector a = 125i and an unknown vector b that is perpendicular to a. the cross-product of these two vectors is a × b = 98k. what is the y-component of vector b?
