A pail of water is rotated in a vertical circle of radius1.00 m. (a) What two external forces act on the water in thepail? (b) Which of the two forces is most important in causingthe water to move in a circle? (c) What is the pail’s minimumspeed at the top of the circle if no water is to spill out? (d) Ifthe pail with the speed found in part (c) were to suddenly disappearat the top of the circle, describe the subsequent motionof the water. Would it differ from the motion of a projectile?
