A 0.2-stone is attached to a string and swung in a circle of radius 0.6 m on a horizontal and frictionless surface. If the stone makes 150 revolutions per minute, the tension force of the string on the stone is:

Answer:

2960 N

Explanation:

Convert rev/min to rad/s:

150 rev/min × (2π rad/rev) × (1 min / 60 s) = 50π rad/s

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

T = m v² / r

T = m ω² r

T = (0.2 kg) (50π rad/s)² (0.6 m)

T = 2960 N
