Explanation / Answer

8. m = 0.101 g

phi = 5.57 deg

tension in thread = T

hence from force balance

2Tsin(phi) = mg

T = mg/2*sin(phi) = 0.101*10^-3*9.81/2*sin(5.57) = 0.005104 N

option B) 5.1*10^-3 N

9. F = 9x^3

restoring force

from x = 0 to x = 0.48 m

dW = Fdx = 9x^3dx

integrating

W = 9x^4/4 = 9(0.48^4)/4 = 0.11943936 J

option E) 0.12 J
