Problem 36P The piston of a machine exerts a constant force on a ball as it moves horizontally through a distance of 15 cm. You use a motion detector to measure the speed of five different balls as they come off the piston; the data are shown below. Use theory to find two quantities that, when grap

Dee is on a swing in the playground. The chains are 2.5 m long, and the tension in each chain is 450 N when Dee is 55 cm above the lowest point of her swing. Tension is a vector directed along the chain, measured in newtons, abbreviated N. What are the horizontal and vertical components of the tensio
