Question

                    The two identical pucks with masses of 300.0 g, in the figure rotate together on a frictionless, horizontal table. They are tied together by                     strings 1 and 2, each of length 1.00 m.
                

                    
                                     

                    
                    A) If their common angular speed is 10.0 rad/s, what is the tension in the second string?
                

                    B) What is the tension in the second string?                 

Explanation / Answer

f=ma = mw^2r = 0.3*1*100 = 30 N
