Homework Statement
Mass of ball=0.500kg string length=1.02m
I have a motion diagram of a ball being spun in a counter clockwise direction. there are four points on the circular diagram this is the best I can do right now
......v= 4.0m/s
......|
......|
v=6.0m/s ---------- v= 6.0m/s
......|
......|
...v=7.5m/s
calculate the value(in N) of the net force at the top point. What law are you using?
The Attempt at a Solution
I know how to calculate if their is tangential + radial acceleration but If anyone could explain why there would or would not be tangential acceleration at the top and bottom point of the swing that would be very helpful because I am not sure. I am leaning towards using just the force of gravity on the ball for my final answer.
