Suppose a mass is moving in a circular path on a frictionless table as shown below. In Earth’s frame of reference, there is no centrifugal force pulling the mass away from the center of rotation, yet there is a force stretching the siring attaching the mass to the nail. Using concepts related to centripetal force and Newton’s third law; explain that force stretches the string, identifying its physical origin.
