A 16.9 kg monkey is swinging on a 5.32 m long vine. It starts at rest, with the vine at a 43.0° angle. How fast is the monkey moving at the bottom of its swing? (Unit = m/s)

v = 5.7554 m/s

Explanation:

First of all we need to know if the angle of the vine is measured in the horizontal or vertical.

To do this easier, let's assume the angle is measured with the horizontal. In this case, the innitial height of the monkey will be:

h₀ = h sinα

h₀ = 5.32 sin43° = 3.6282 m

As the monkey is dropping from the innitial point which is the suspension point, is also dropping from 5.32. Then the actual height of the monkey will be:

Δh = 5.32 - 3.63 = 1.69 m

In order to calculate the speed of the monkey we need to understand that the monkey has a potential energy. This energy, because of the gravity, is converted in kinetic energy, and the value will be the same. Therefore we can say that:

Ep = Ek

From here, we can calculate the speed of the monkey.

Ep = mgΔH

Ek = 1/2 mv²

The potential energy is:

Ep = 16.9 * 9.8 * 1.69 = 279.9

Now with the kinetic energy:

1/2 * (16.9) * v² = 279.9

v² = (279.9) * 2 / 16.9

v² = 33.12

v = √33.12

Hope this helps
