Tension Force between two rotating masses on strings

[NarcolepticPig]

Homework Statement

Two balls with masses m1=0.3 kg and m2=0.7 kg are connected by massless strings with lengths L1=0.2 m and L2=0.26 m, as shown. The arrangement of strings and masses rotates at constant angular frequency ω=57.6 radians/s around a fixed pivot point. Find the two tensions, T1 and T2. There is no gravity in this problem.

Homework Equations

So, here are equations I believe are relevant.

F=ma
A=V^2/r
ω=rad*r

So, I'm struggling trying to find the different tensions between the two strings. I think that the radius will change depending on which ball you are looking at and therefore the tensions will be different.

Any tips?

Hi NarcolepticPig and welcome to PF.

Can you find the tension in one string? If so, then you can find the tension in the other string the same way. Use the equations that you have posted. I am not sure what the third equation ω = rad*r means.
