An Air puck of mass m1 =0.24 kg is tied to a string and allowed to revolve in a circle of Radius R=1.0 m on a frictionless horizonal table. The other end of the string passes through a hole in the center of the table, and a mass of m2 = 1.1 Kg is tied to it (see figure below). The suspended mass remains in equilibrium while the puck on the tabletop revolves.

Question
An Air puck of mass m, =0.24 kg is tied to a string and allowed to revolve in a circle of Radius R=1.0 m on
a frictionless horizonal table. The other end of the string passes through a hole in the center of the
table, and a mass of m2 = 1.1 Kg is tied to it (see figure below). The suspended mass remains in
equilibrium while the puck on the tabletop revolves.
What is the tension in the string (in N)?
What is the horizonal force acting on the puck (in N) ?
What is the speed of the puck (in m/s)?
