13 8. A building superintendent twirls a set of keys in a
circle at the end of a cord. If the keys have a centrip-
etal acceleration of 145 m/s2 and the cord has a
length of 0.34 m, what is the tangential speed of the
keys?

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

Aforce of 500.0 is represented graphically with its tail at the origin and the tip ointed in a direction 30.0° above the positive x-axis. what are the x- and y- components of the vector?
