A 0.160 kg ball attached to a light cord is swung in a vertical circle of radius 70.0 cm. At the top of the swing, the speed of the ball is 3.26 m/s. The centre of the circle is 1.50 m above the floor.
Calculate the speed of the ball when the cord is 30.0̊ below the horizontal.

When the cord carrying the ball is at 30 deg below horizontal, the ball is at
       1.5 m - 0.70 sin 30 = 1.15 meters above ground

Energy of the ball at the topmost point of swing :
       KE + PE  = 1/2 m v² + m g h
      = 1/2 0.160 3.26²  +  0.160 * 9.81 * (1.50 + 0.70)  = 8.767 Joules
Energy of the ball when the cord at 30 deg from horizontal
       = 1/2 m V² + m g h  =
       = 1/2 * 0.160 V² + 0.160 * 9.81 * 1.15 = 0.08V² + 1.805 Joules

Conservation of energy :  0.08 V² + 1.805 = 8.767
         V² = 87.025

 V = 9.329 m/sec

Answer:

The speed of the ball is 5.59 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 0.160 kg

Radius = 70 cm =0.70 m

Distance = 1.50

Speed at top = 3.26 m/s

Angle = 30.0°

We need to calculate the speed of the ball

The total energy at the top

[tex]K.E_{i}+P.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2+mgh[/tex]

The final kinetic energy of ball at that point when the cord is 30° below the horizontal

[tex]K.E_{f}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}[/tex]

Using conservation of energy

[tex]K.E_{f}=K.E_{i}+P.E[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2+mgh[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.160\times v_{f}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.160\times(3.26)^2+0.160\times9.8\times(0.70+0.70\times\sin30^{\circ})[/tex]

[tex]v_{f}=\sqrt{(3.26)^2+2\times9.8\times1.05}[/tex]

[tex]v_{f}=5.59\ m/s[/tex]

Hence, The speed of the ball is 5.59 m/s.
