As in the figure, a uniform sphere of mass = 0.84 kg and radius r = 4.2 cm is supported by a string (of negligible mass) attached to a wall (whose friction can also be ignored). The center of the sphere is a vertical distance L = 10 cm below the attachment point of the string. Find the tension in the string. (Note that the direction of the tension (along the string) is along a line passing through the center of the sphere.)
Your answer should be in N, but enter only the numerical part in the box.
given
L = 10 cm
r = 4.2 cm
m = 0.84 kg
let theta is the angle made by the string with
vertical.
from fig, theta = tan^-1(r/L)
= tan^-1(4.2/10)
= 22.8 degrees
let T is the tension in the string.
as the sphere is in equilibrium, net force acting on it must be zero.
Apply, Fnety = 0
T*cos(theta) - m*g = 0
T*cos(theta) = m*g
T = m*g/cos(theta)
= 0.84*9.8/cos(22.8)
= 8.93 N <<<<<<<<<----------------------Answer

A rod of length L and negligible mass is attached to a uniform disk of mass M and radius R (see figure below). A string is wrapped around the disk, and you pull on the string with a constant force F. Two small balls each of mass m slide along the rod with negligible friction. The apparatus starts from rest, and when the center of the disk has moved a distance d, a length of strings has come off the...
