9. If a passenger vehicle travels in a circular path at too high a speed, it can tip over. The image below shows a vehicle beginning to tip over. TESTOS A group of students investigated the speed at which a passenger vehicle will begin to tip over by using a remote- control toy car. The students drove the car around circular paths of various known radii, at such a speed that it was just starting to tip for each radius. They timed the period of the cars motion and used the period to calculate the 'tipping speed' (the speed at which the toy car begins to tip over) of the car. The graph below shows the data collected by the students:

A sphere of mass 1.0 kg and radius 0.5 m is attached to the end of a massless rod of length 3.0 m. The rod rotates about an axis that is at the opposite end of the sphere (see below). The system rotates horizontally about the axis at a constant 400 rev/min. After rotating at this angular speed in a vacuum, air resistance is introduced and provides a force 0.15 N on the sphere opposite to the direction of motion. What is the power provided by air resistance to the system 100.0 s after air resistance is introduced?
