A child is on a swing. An adult tied a rope to the seat of the swing and pulled the swing forward. That rope is now horizontal, and the ropes attached to the swing structure make an angle θ with the vertical, as shown. (Note: There are two ropes tied to the chair that go to the top of the swing structure, one on each side of the child. We just see one in the in the image since we are looking at a side view. ) The child has a mass m. The adult uses the rope to hold the child at rest. What is the tension in the horizontal rope, and what are the tensions in each of the ropes connecting the seat to the top of the swing structure? [Use the following values. θ = 50.0∘, m = 25.0 kg ]

A child's pogo stick (figure below) stores energy in a spring (k = 2.95×104 N/m). At position (A) (x1 = −0.100 m), the spring compression is a maximum and the child is momentarily at rest. At position (B) (x = 0), the spring is relaxed and the child is moving upward. At position C, the child is again momentarily at rest at the top of the jump. Assume that the combined mass of child and pogo stick is 28.0 kg. (a) Calculate the total energy of the system if both potential energies are zero at x = 0. J (b) Determine x2. m (c) Calculate the speed of the child at x = 0. m/s (d) Determine the value of x for which the kinetic energy of the system is a maximum. mm (e) Obtain the child's maximum upward speed. m/s

A child swinging on a tyre swing mas a mass of 30 kg and is moving at a speed of v = 4 m/s when the swing reaches its lowest point at θ = 0∘. Assuming that the size of the child and tyre swing is small with respect to the length of the swing (and can hence be approximated as a particle) and the length of the cord l = 4 m, determine: i. The tension in the cord at θ = 0∘ (5 marks) ii. The maximum angle θ that the child swings to and momentarily stops (10 marks) iii. The tension in the rope holding the swing at this instant (10 marks)
