As part of an outdoor display, a 5-kg model Cof the earth is attached to wires AC and BC and revolves at a constant speed v in the norizontal circle shown. Determine the range of the allowable values of v if both wires are to remain taut and if the tension in either of the wires is not to exceed 116 N. Given: r= 0.945 m.
