3. 1 points SerCP11 7.P.051 My Notes Ask Your Teacher An athlete swings a 4.00-kg ball horizontally on the end of a rope. The ball moves in a circle of radius 0.890 m at an angular speed of 0.610 rev/s. (a) What is the tangential speed of the ball? m/s (b) What is its centripetal acceleration m/s2 (c) If the maximum tension the rope can withstand before breaking is 82 N, what is the maximum tangential speed the ball can have? m/s Need Help?

Solution
Here ,
a) angular speed , w = 0.610 rev/s
w = 0.610 * 2pi = 3.83 rad/s
r = 0.890 m
a) tangential speed = r * w
tangential speed = 0.890 * 3.83
tangential speed = 3.41 m/s
b)
centripetal acceleration = w^2 * r
centripetal acceleration = 3.83^2 * 0.890
centripetal acceleration = 13.1 m/s^2
c)
as F = m * v^2/r
82 = 4 * v^2/0.890
v = 4.27 m/s
the maximum tangential speed of the ball is 4.27 m/s
