Can someone help me with this physics 1 question? Thank you so much for your help!!?
a puck of mass m1 = 1.50 kg slides in a circle of radius r = 20.0 cm on a frictionless table while attached to a hanging cylinder of mas M2 = 2.50 kg by a cord through a hole in the table. what speed keeps the cylinder at rest? "the picture looks like a table, with a puck going in a circle of radius r = 20 cm counterclockwise with a string of negligible mass hanging through a hole in the center of the table attached to a cylinder of mass M2 = 2.5 kg."
thank you so much to anyone who can help me with solving this problem!!
the answer in the back of my book is: 1.81 m/s
The centripetal force of the puck's circular motion needs to be equal to the gravitational force of the cylinder. This means the force of the puck from it's circular motion will be enough to prevent the cylinder from rising or falling.
So the equation for centripetal force is (m1)(v^2)/r, where m1 is the mass of the puck, v is it's speed and r is the circle's radius. The equation for gravitational force is simply (M2)(g) where M2 is the mass of the cylinder and g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2).
Now these equations are equal, so rearrange to isolate v and solve. You know everything except v should it should be no problem. Also keep in mind you need to convert the radius to meters.
