Question

How do you find the tension of an object in circular motion?

Answer 1

Well, you know that F=ma, so F=m*ac
and ac=v^2/r :)

Answer 2

tension will b T-W=ma :) or depends

Answer 3

tension-weight= mass x acceleration (due to gravity)?

Answer 4

I got 69.935 for the tension

Answer 6

i dunno i dont have time to do it, but according to my understanding of your image g doesnt matter, look at it from a birds i view split it up into axis and you will see that only tension acts on it, so t=ma solve for it.
