Homework Equations
F = m v^2 /r
The Attempt at a Solution
so find the components of the length of the rope, the X component is 15.11m and the Y component is 9.77m.15.11 should be the radius of the circle if you look at it from above.
the components of Fg should be Fgx = 1398 N and Fgy = 904 N
Plugging into Fcentripetal = mv^2/r = 170kg x V^2 / 15.11 = 1398 N
V should equal 11 m/s.
can someone confirm if this is correct?
