- A girl swings a 0.190 kg rock attached to a taut string in a circle around her head; her hand holds the end of the string above her head, and the string angles down slightly. The string is massless and 0.680 m long. A coordinate system lies with its origin at the location where the string comes out of the girl's hand. The positive z-axis points vertically upwards, the positive y- axis points horizontally towards the right, and the positive x-axis points out of the screen. At a certain instant, the rock makes 3.25 revolutions per second (rev/s) in a counterclockwise direction, as seen from above. The string is inclined at an angle of 0 = 12.4° below the xy-plane, and the projection of the string onto the xy- plane makes an angle o = 36.8° with the positive x-axis. What is the tangential velocity vector v in meters per second (m/s) at this instant?
