A sled with a mass of 25.0 kg rests on a horizontal sheet of essentially frictionless ice. It is attached by a 5.00-m rope to a post set in the ice. once given a push, the sled revolves uniformly in a circle around the post. If the sled makes five complete revolutions every minute, find the F exerted on it by the rope.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The value is  [tex]F = 34.3 \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the shed is  [tex]m = 25 \ kg[/tex]

    The length of the rope is  [tex]l = 5.0 \ m[/tex]

    The angular speed of the shed is [tex]w = 5 rev/minute = \frac{2* \pi * 5}{60 }= 0.524 \ rad/sec[/tex]

Generally the force exerted on the shed is mathematically represented as

     [tex]F = m * w^2 * l[/tex]

=>  [tex]F = 25 * 0.524^2 * 5[/tex]

=>  [tex]F = 34.3 \ N[/tex]    

The magnitude of the centripetal force on the sled by the rope is 34.3 N.

The given parameters:

  • mass of the sled, m = 25 kg
  • length of the rope, r = 5 m
  • number of revolution per minute, N = 5

The angular speed of the sled is calculated as follows;

[tex]\omega = 5 \ \frac{rev}{\min} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s} \\\\\omega = 0.524 \ rad/s[/tex]

The magnitude of the centripetal force on the sled by the rope is calculated as follows;

[tex]F = ma_c\\\\F = m\omega ^2 r\\\\F = 25 \times (0.524)^2 \times 5\\\\F = 34.3 \ N[/tex]
