In the figure, a 4.0-kg ball is on the end of a 1.6-m rope that is fixed at 0. The ball is held at point A, with the rope horizontal, and is given an initial downward velocity.

The ball moves through three quarters of a circle with no friction and arrives at B, with the rope barely under tension. The initial velocity of the ball, at point A, is closest to

A) 4.0 m/s
B) 5.6 m/s
C) 6.3 m/s
D) 6.9 m/s
E) 7.9 m/s

Question 2

A) 1.67 R
B) 2.00 R
C) 1.50 R
D) 1.33 R
E) 1.25 R
