    Analyzing Dynamic Orbits: Tension, Speed, and Angular Momentum Calculations

    Yes you're right sorry. So assuming angular momentum is conserved then from that equation v = 3.616. so for part e to get the angle I used mv^2/rsintheta = mg/costheta to get tantheta = v^2/rg and theta as 69.43°. Does that sound correct?

    Analyzing Dynamic Orbits: Tension, Speed, and Angular Momentum Calculations

    I assumed that the angular momentum was constant so 18.08 = 0.5 x 10v and v as 0.904

    Analyzing Dynamic Orbits: Tension, Speed, and Angular Momentum Calculations

    Homework Statement A ball of 10kg mass is suspended by a cable that passes through a hole in a floor. The ball rotates in a circular orbit, A, that is in a plane that is 3m below the floor. If the orbit has a radius of 1m, calculate; a) Tension in the cable b) speed va of the ball in...
