An air puck of mass 0.250 kg is tied to a string and allowed to revolve in a circle of radius 1.14 m on a frictionless horizontal table. The other end of the string passes through a hole in the center of the table, and a mass of 1.00 kg is tied to it.
The suspended mass remains in equilibrium while the puck on the tabletop revolves. What is the tension in the string?
