A ball of mass 120 g at the end of a string travels in a circle while the other end of the string is attached to a fixed point on the ceiling. The string is 115 cm long and makes an angle of 35° to the ceiling as the ball turns. Determine the tension in the string and the tangential velocity of the ball. 35° 115 cm
