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


puck.
In general F = m w^2 R

So in this specific case F= m w^2 L/2
Where F is the tension in the string.


A) Tension in second string = 0.200*(10
