Movement on the pulley Two objects are connected by a string on a fixed, frictionless pulley and are moving together. In this case, the mass of the string and pulley is ignored. Since tension \(T\) and gravity \(g\) act in … more
3 forces acting on a conical pendulum Gravity(=mg): The force the Earth pulls. Tension: The force applied to both ends of the thread. Tension is always directed to the center from both ends. Centripetal force(Fc): The force that maintains circular … more
Tension by gravity In physics, tension is the force on a string connecting two objects. Generally, the tension is calculated from both ends toward the center. When the length of the pendulum is \(l\), let’s consider the pendulum raised and … more
