A 0.50-kg ball that is tied to the end of a 1.5-m light cord is revolved in a horizontal plane, with the cord making a 30° angle with the vertical. (See Fig. P7.74.) (a) Determine the ball’s speed. (b) If, instead, the ball is revolved so that its speed is 4.0 m/s, what angle does the cord make with  the vertical? (c) If the cord can withstand a maximum tension of 9.8 N, what is the highest speed at which the ball can move?FIGURE P7.74
