In the circular motion of the hammer, the centripetal force is given by
where m is the mass of the hammer, v its tangential speed and r is the distance from the center of the motion, i.e. the length of the hammer.
Using the data of the problem, we find:
where m is the mass of the hammer, v its tangential speed and r is the distance from the center of the motion, i.e. the length of the hammer.
Using the data of the problem, we find:
Explanation:
(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.
In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag. She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.
0.4 miles = 0.64 km
displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km
(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time
t = 15 min = 0.25 hour
Hence, this is the required solution.
