A 150g mass tied on a string is whirled in a vertical circle of radius 30cm with a uniform speed. At the lowest position the tension in the string is 9.5N. Calculate the velocity of the
mass.
(2 marks)

v = 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object tied on a string, m = 150 g = 0.15 kg

The radius of the vertical circle, r = 30 cm = 0.3 m

At the lowest position, the tension in the string is 9.5N.

We need to find the velocity of the mass.

At the lowest point, the net centripetal force is given by :

Putting all the values to find v.

So, the velocity of the mass is 4 m/s.

well, you would divide 135 by 33 to get your answer. then that is how many seconds it would take. boardman should fly about 132 m or 4.090909090909091 seconds.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
