A 4810 kg demolition ball swings at the end of a 12.3 m cable on the arc of a vertical circle. At the lowest point of the swing, the ball is moving at a speed of 1.06 m/s. Determine the tension in the cable.

Respuesta :

The tension in the cable supporting the swing of the ball in the given vertical circle is 47,577.4 N.

Tension in the cable

The tension in the cable supporting the swing of the ball is calculated as follows;

T = mg + mac

T = mg + m(v²)/r

T = (4810 x 9.8) + (4810 x 1.06²)/12.3

T = 47,577.4 N

Thus, the tension in the cable supporting the swing of the ball in the given vertical circle is 47,577.4 N.
