1. d. The parallel component of is opposite and will cause the particle to slow down. The perpendicular component of will cause the particle to change directions in a downward direction.
2. . The center-directed force is . Changing by a factor of 2 changes the tension by a factor of 2, but changing by a factor of 2 changes the tension by a factor of 4.
3. b. The car is moving in a circle, so there must be a net force toward the center of the circle. The circle is below the car, so the net force must point downward. This can be true only if .
4. c. The ball does not have a “memory” of its previous motion. The velocity is straight up at the instant the string breaks. The only force on the ball after the string breaks is the gravitational force, straight down. This is just like tossing a ball straight up.
