An aerialist on a high platform holds onto a trapeze attached to a support by an 7.6-m cord. (See the drawing.) Just before he jumps off the platform, the cord makes an angle of 44∘ with the vertical. He jumps, swings down, then back up, releasing the trapeze at the instant it is 0.67 m below its initial height. Calculate the angle θ that the trapeze cord makes with the vertical at this instant.

A ball is attached to a cord of length L, which is tied to a frame attached to a truck bed as shown in figure (a), below. The ball-truck system is initially traveling to the right at constant speed vi, with the cord vertical. The truck suddenly stops when it undergoes an inelastic collision with a low wall as shown in figure (b), below. The suspended ball swings through an angle θ. a a (i) b (i) (a) Show that the original speed of the truck can be computed from vi = 2 gL(1−cos⁡(θ)). When the truck stops, the ball begins moving like a -- Select--- ∇. The truck's initial velocity can be derived using ---Select-- .

The figure shows a pendulum of length L = 2.0 m. Its bob (which effectively has all the mass) has speed v0 when the cord makes an angle θ0 = 31∘ with the vertical. (a) What is the speed of the bob when it is in its lowest position if v0 = 7.1 m/s? What is the least value that v0 can have if the pendulum is to swing down and then up (b) to a horizontal position, and (c) to a vertical position with the cord remaining straight? (d) Do the answers to (b) and (c) increase, decrease, or remain the same if θ0 is increased by a few degrees?
