What is the largest value v can have without the string breaking?
Q. A stone of mass 0.32 kg is tied to a string of length 0.55 m and is swung in a horizontal circle with speed v. The string has a breaking-point force of 85 N. What is the largest value v can have without the string breaking?

A. The acceleration of the ball is toward the center of the circle and therefore the net force must be in that direction. The string tension T provides the centripetal force T = m a = m v / R You can now solve for v. By the way, because the tension has to provide a vertical component to support the weight of the ball, the string will have to make some angle with the horizontal. So a realistic problem of this sort would have to involve that angle. Then you would have T cos = m v / R and T sin = mg Try this yourself. Get a reasonably massive object, tie it on a string and try make the string horizontal. You can't do it!!

What is the power dissipated by the heater if it is instead connected to a 120-V dc source?
Q. A 3.1-kW heater is designed to be connected to a 120-V rms source. What is the power dissipated by the heater if it is instead connected to a 120-V dc source?

A. It's a little bit of a trick question , becaused the Power will be exactly the Same, (3.1 kW) because 'rms' is a way of expressing an AC voltage , on the basis of having the same power as a DC source of the same magnitude.
