Question

A small object with mass 0.200 kg moves with constant speed in a vertical circle of radius 0.500 m. It takes the object 0.500 s to complete one revolution. (a) What is the translational speed of the object

Answer 1

6.28 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the object, m = 0.2 kg

The radius of the circle, r = 0.5 m

It takes the object 0.500 s to complete one revolution.

We need to find the translational speed of the object. Let it is v. We know that,

`v=(2\pi r)/(t)\\\\v=(2\pi * 0.5)/(0.5)\\\\v=6.28\ m/s`

So, the transalational speed of the object is 6.28 m/s.
