What is the magnitude of the centripetal accerleration

Reference no: EM13299220

A small steel sphere of mass 0.40kg is attached by a 5.0m long cord to a swivel pin set into the surface of a frictionless table top. The sphere moves in a circle on the horizontal surface with a speed of 6.0 m/s.

(a) What is the magnitude of the centripetal accerleration of the sphere?

(b) What is the tension in the cord?
