What is the pulling force exerted by string known as?
The pulling force exerted by a string is known as tension. It is a force that arises when an object is attached to the string and is being pulled in opposite directions.
What is force of tension?
The force of tension is the pulling force exerted by a string, cable, or chain when it is attached to an object and subject to an external force. It is responsible for keeping the object in equilibrium and preventing it from moving. The magnitude of the tension force is equal to the force applied to the string.
Which of the following are examples of circular motion (things with a net centripetal force)?
Earth revolving around the Sun. A ball attached to a string and being swung in a circular path. A car taking a curve on a road.
What is swinging a ball on a string around your head?
Swinging a ball on a string around your head demonstrates the concept of centripetal force, where the force is directed towards the center of the circular motion to keep the ball moving in a curved path. This creates tension in the string to prevent the ball from flying off. The speed and distance of the ball depend on the force applied and the length of the string.
What keeps the planetsasteroids and your moon in orbit?
The force of those objects' gravity and the gravity of the Sun pull on each other. The result is similar to whirling a ball tied to a string around and around yourself. The string is like the force of gravity.
When is a stone tied to a string and whirled is most likely to break and why?
If you allow the string to wrap around the finger, as the radius diminishes, the force on the string increases , according to : > force = mass (of stone) * (velocity2 / radius) (assuming the velocity remains constant)
A rock attached to a string swings in a vertical circle which free body diagram shows the forces on the rock at the highest point?
At the highest point of its swing, the string tension and the force of gravity acting downwards will be the only forces on the rock. The tension force will point downward and the gravitational force will point towards the center of the circle.
How do you calculate force in a string?
To calculate the force in a string, you need to consider the tension in the string. This tension can be calculated using the equation (T = F \cdot \cos(\theta)), where (T) is the tension, (F) is the force applied to the string, and (\theta) is the angle between the string and the direction of the force.
What will be tension in string if same force acts on the ends of string?
The tension in any part of the string is equal to the force that pulls the string at the ends (assuming for simplicity that the string is basically weightless).
Why does a force meter contain a string?
A force meter contains a string because when a force is applied to the meter, it causes tension in the string. This tension is then measured by the force meter and displayed as a force reading, allowing for accurate measurement of the applied force.
What is a real life example of centripetal force?
A spinning ball on a string being swung around in a circle is a real life example of centripetal force. The force provided by the string towards the center of the circle is the centripetal force that keeps the ball in circular motion.
What flies when attached and floats when it's not?
A helium balloon. When it is attached to a weight, like a string, it flies because it is lighter than air. If the attachment is removed, the balloon will float upwards due to the buoyant force acting against gravity.
