Air
A 0.550 kg wooden block is spun around on a wooden table. The wooden block is being spun around on a 2.00 m
long massless wire. The wooden block has air being pushed out behind it causing a thrust force of 3.20 N. The air is
being pushed out at 70.0" from the radial line as shown in the figure. If the block is initially at rest and the coefficient
of friction is 0.300, what is the tension in the wire after 20.0 revolutions?
