Tension is maximum at the midpoint and minimum at the extreme
Tension supplies centripetal mv^2/r and balances radial component of weight mgcostheta both are max and midpoint and min at extremes
Amplitude of string - 1.8 m
Acrobat lets go at lowest point calculate their speed when they let go of the bar time period 3.8
V max = wA = ( 2pi/3.2 ) x 1.8
Explain how and why this happens
At the top of the oscillation, if theplate accelerates vertically down at greater than 9.81 ms^-2 then the sand accelerates down by gravity and cannot keep up
Calculate th lowest frequency whe the sand grains loose contact
amax = w^2 A
amax = 9.81 A = 3.5x10^-4
F26.6Hz
