If the string is one meter long and the pig is making a 0.15 m radius circle, what angle is between the circle and the string? C. If the pig has a mass of 0.25 kg, what is the tension in the string? D. How fast must he be travelling for this system to be stable?

In the image is a stopper attached to a fishing line that is threaded theough a glass rod. Hanging from the end of the line opposite the stopper is a 100-gram mass. The stopper is being whirled in a horizontal circle, first quickly, then decreasing to a slower speed. a. Is the string pulling inward on the stopper? b. Is there a force pulling the stopper outward? c. True or false: The inward force and outward forces balance, and since the speed is constant, there's no acceleration and there is equilibrium.
