A child is swinging back and forth on a tire swing that is attached to a tree branch by a single rope. Shown are two positions during a swing from right to left. Three students are discussing the tension in the rope at the bottom of the swing.
Alia:
âAt the bottom of the swing, she will be moving exactly horizontally. Since she is not moving vertically at that instant, the vertical forces cancel. The tension in the rope at that instant equals the weight.â
Brian:
âJust looking at the velocity vectors, the change in velocity points upward between A and B. So that is the direction of the acceleration, and also of the net force. To get a net force pointing upward, the tension would have to be greater than the weight.â
Clara: âBut there arenât just two forces acting on her at the bottom of the swing. Since sheâs moving in a circle, thereâs also the centripetal force, which acts toward the center of the circle. Since both the tension and the centripetal force point upward, and the weight points downward, to get zero net force the tension actually has to be less than the weight. The tension plus the centripetal force equals the weight.â
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?

The rocket is fired vertically and tracked by the radar station shown. when θ reaches 66°, other corresponding measurements give the values r = 32700 ft, r¨ = 85 ft/sec2, and Î¸Ë = 0.019 rad/sec. calculate the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the rocket at this position.

Consider two less-than-desirable options. in the first you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into an identical car also going 30 mph. in the second option you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into a stationary brick wall. in neither case does your car bounce off the thing it hits, and the collision time is the same in both cases. which of these two situations would result in the greatest impact force?
