asked 12/27/205 AP Physics Uniform Circular Motion Questions (URGENT!!)
- A 5.0-kg object attached to the end of a 4.0-m rope is moving in a vertical circle. What is the object's linear velocity at the top of the circle if the tension in the rope at this point is 30 N?
- 10 m/s
- 8 m/s
- 9 m/s
- The work done by the centripetal force acting on an object moving at a constant linear speed is:
- greater than zero since it takes energy to turn an object
- greater than zero since a force acts and the object moves
- equal to zero because the force and the displacement of the object are perpendicular
- A 0.40 kg object attached to the end of a 0.50 m string rotates in a vertical circle. If the angular speed of the object at the bottom of the circle is 8.0 rad/s, what is the tension in the string at this point?
- 10 N
- 17 N
- 11 N
- A roller coaster travels around a vertical 8-m radius loop. Determine the speed at the top of the loop if the normal force exerted by the seats on the passengers is equal to ¼ of their weight.
- 13 m/s
- 10 m/s
- 15 m/s
- 7 m/s
- A 2.0 x 103 kg roller coaster travels around a vertical 24-m radius loop. If the coaster has a tangential speed of 18 m/s at the lowest point of the loop, what is the normal force that is exerted on the coaster by the track at this point?
- 5.3 x 104 N
- 3.0 x 104 N
- 4.7 x 104 N
I cannot understand these so can you also show work please... Thank you!!

Part 1) Mv2/r-Mg=30 ... yields v=8m/s
Part 2) Work = F dot r =0 since F and r are at 90 degrees
Part 3) Mv2/r+Mg= T ... yields T=16.7 Newtons
Part 4) Mv2/r-Mg = N = Mg/4 ...yields N=9.9 Newtons
Part 5) Mv2/r+Mg=N .... yields N= = 4.7*104 Newtons
