a conical pendulum is formed by attaching a 50g mass to a 1.2m string. The mass swings around the circle of radius 25cm (a) calculate the speed of the mass (b) acceleration of the mass (c) tension in the string
Added by Donna S.
Step 1
- Mass \( m = 50 \, \text{g} = 0.05 \, \text{kg} \) - Length of the string \( L = 1.2 \, \text{m} \) - Radius of the circle \( r = 25 \, \text{cm} = 0.25 \, \text{m} \) Show more…

A conical pendulum consists of a mass m = 1.20 kg connected to a string of length L = 1.00 m, moving in a horizontal circle as shown. The string makes an angle θ = 28.0° with the vertical. This angle stays fixed while the mass moves in the circle. a. (5) On the diagram, sketch and label all the forces acting on m. If there is a nonzero NET Force on m, in which direction does it point? b. (5) Apply Newton's Laws and determine the tangential speed of the mass around the circle. c. (5) How large is the tension in the string?

A conical pendulum is formed by attaching a $500 \mathrm{g}$ ball to a 1.0-m-long string, then allowing the mass to move in a horizontal circle of radius $20 \mathrm{cm} .$ FIGURE P8.35 shows that the string traces out the surface of a cone, hence the name. (FIGURE CAN'T COPY) a. What is the tension in the string? b. What is the ball's angular speed, in rpm?
