Question

Find the net force on the 4th part. Given, the value of velocity remain same at every point.

Answer 1

In the fourth case, when the weight and the tension are acting vertically downward.

The net force acting on the bucket is,

`F_{\text{net}}=(mv^2)/(r)`

where v is the velocity, r is the radius, and m is the mass,

The net force acting on the bucket will remain the same if the magnitude of the velocity remains the same.

As the direction of the bucket changes thus, the value of net force is not equal to zero.

As the velocity of the bucket is 3 m/s.

Thus, the value of net force acting on the bucket is,

`\begin{gathered} F_{\text{net}}=(0.5*3^2)/(0.6) \\ F_{\text{net}}=7.5\text{ N} \end{gathered}`

Thus, (at the constant velocity at every point case) the net force acting is 7.5 N.
