An 8.0-m massless rod is loosely pinned to a frictionless pivot at 0, as shown in the figure. A very small 4.0-kg ball is attached to the other end of the rod

The ball is held at A, where the rod makes a 30° angle above the horizontal, and is released. The ball-rod assembly then swings freely with negligible friction in a vertical circle between A and B. The tension in the rod when the ball passes through the lowest point at D is closest to A) 160 N. B) 200 N. C) 120 N. D) 80 N. E) 40 N.

An object floats with half its volume beneath the surface of the water. The weight (force that Earth exerts in it) of the displaced water is 2000 N

What is the weight (force that Earth exerts on it) of the object? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. A) 1000 N B) 2000 N C) 4000 N D) It cannot be determined because we do not know the volume of the object.
