Science Homework Help. Physics – Force and Rotational Motion Problem
A 59.0-kg ice skater is moving at 3.93 m/s when she grabs the loose end of a rope, the opposite end of which is tied to a pole. She then moves in a circle of radius 0.870 m around the pole. (a) Determine the magnitude of the force exerted by the horizontal rope on her arms. (b) Compare this force with her weight.
