Hello,     Please help with the following question:   A panda wants to swing on a vine like tarzan, creating a simple panda-lum. Unfortunately, the vine is too weak to handle the tension created by the panda.   The panda starts at a point with the vine outstretched horizontally to its fulllength l and that makes a 90 degree angle with the vertical. If the panda has a mass m and the max tension in the rope is T , show that the speed of tha panda when the vine breaks is: v = Square Root of 2lT/3m
