A 9.5 kilogram monkey is hanging by one arm from a branch and is swinging on a vertical circle. As an approximation, suppose a radial distance of 80 centimeter between the branch and the point where the monkey's mass is located. As the monkey swings through the lowest point on the circle, it has a speed of 2.5 m/s.
(a) Obtain the magnitude of the centripetal force acting on the monkey.
N
(b) Obtain the magnitude of the tension in the monkey's arm.
