A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children with a mass of 50 kg swings from this rope that is 4.4 m long, his tangential speed at the bottom of the swing is 3.7 m/s. What is the centripetal force of the child at the bottom of the swing?

A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children swings from this rope that is 5.80 m long, his tangential speed at the bottom of the swing is 8.00 m/s. (a) What is the centripetal acceleration, in m/s2, of the child at the bottom of the swing? m/s2 (b) What provides the centripetal force that keeps the child moving in an arc? the weight of the child gravitational acceleration the tension in the rope the height of the tree

A child of mass 26 kg swings at the end of an elastic cord. At the bottom of the swing, the child's velocity is horizontal, and the speed is 7 m/s. At this instant the cord is 4.50 m long. (Take the +x direction to be horizontal and to the right, the +y direction to be upward, and the +z direction to be out of the page.) (a) At this instant, what is the parallel component of the rate of change of the child's momentum? d|p→| dtp^ = (kg⋅m/s)/s (b) At this instant, what is the perpendicular component of the rate of change of the child's momentum? |p→|dρ^ dt = (kg⋅m/s)/s (c) At this instant, what is the net force acting on the child? F→net = N (d) What is the magnitude of the force that the elastic cord exerts on the child? (It helps to draw a diagram of the forces.) |F→due to cord | = N (e) The relaxed length of the elastic cord is 4.43 m. What is the stiffness of the cord? (Use the exact value you entered in part (d) to make this calculation.) ks = N/m
