II) A 0.40-kg ball, attached to the end of a horizontal ord, is rotated in a circle of radius 1.3 m on a friction- less horizontal surface. If the cord will break when the tension in it exceeds 60 N, what i~ the maximum speed the ball can have

Hi there!

In this instance, the object spinning in a horizontal circle will experience a net force in the horizontal direction due to tension.

The net force is equivalent to the centripetal force, so:

∑F = T

mv²/r = T

Solve for v:

v = √rT/m

v = 13.96 m/s
