Chapter 5, Problem 21P

The hammer throw is a track-and-field event in which a 7.3 -kg ball (the “hammer”) is whirled around in a circle several times and released. It then moves upward on the familiar curving path of projectile motion and eventually returns to earth some distance away. The world record for this distance is 86.75   m , achieved in 1986 by Yuriy Sedykh. Ignore air resistance and the fact that the ball is released above the ground rather than at ground level. Furthermore, assume that the ball is whirled on a circle that has a radius of 1.8   m and that its velocity at the instant of release is directed 41 ° above the horizontal. Find the magnitude of the centripetal force acting on the ball just prior to the moment of release.
