A girl at a state fair swings a ball in a vertical circle at the end of a string, the force of the string at the bottom is: A-Less than the weight of the ball B-greater than the weight of the ball C-equal to the weight of the ball D-Zero

which choice is correct and why? thx

Respuesta :

The force of the string at the bottom is greater than the weight of the ball. The correct option is B.

What is Net force?

When two or more forces are acting on the system of objects, then the to attain equilibrium, net force must be zero.

A girl at a state fair swings a ball in a vertical circle at the end of a string.

When the ball is at the bottom, the force acting will be

The tension in the string , T = mass x centripetal acceleration + Force of gravity

So, T = m x ac + mg

The tension in the cable at the bottom will have centripetal force and weight forces acting on it.

Thus, the force of the string at the bottom is greater than the weight of the ball.
