So, I'm working on calculating the tension force in vertical circles-and I understand how to calculate the tension force at different points in the vertical circle (via vector sums).
But what I don't really understand is how to interpret this information.
What can I further do with these tension calculations I have made?
I know that the tension force is greater at the bottom compared to at the top of the circle-but how does knowing this further explain things (e.g. the effect it has on the object in vertical circular motion?)
Thank you for you time :)
