You have hung a 0.500 kg mass from the end of a 1.00 m long pendulum and suspended it from the end of a force sensor so that it is at equilibrium. You tare the force sensor. You then set the pendulum in motion. At the bottom of the motion, the sensor reads -1.96 N. What is the magnitude of the centripetal force, in N?
