An air puck of mass 0.23 kg is tied to a string and allowed to revolve in a circle of radius 1.0 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 0.9 kg is tied to it. The suspended mass remains in equilibrium while the puck on the tabletop revolves.

(a) What is the tension in the string?
N

(b) What is the force causing the centripetal acceleration on the puck?
N

(c) What is the speed of the puck?
m/s
