Ellen is swinging a 0.01kg yo-yo in a circular path perpendicular to the ground. The yo-yo moves in a clockwise direction with a constant speed of 2ms.
What is the velocity of the yo-yo at the bottom of the circle?

A boy standing in one spot, swings a box on a string around him as fast as he can. The box ends up moving around him in a circle at a constant height. The string is 1.25 meters long.
a) Draw a free-body diagram for the box. (Hints: what are the forces in the vertical direction? What about the horizontal direction? Remember: centripetal force is NOT some "new" force, it is included in the forces already on your FBD!))
b) If the tension in the string is 100 N and the mass of the box is 5.0 kg, how fast is the box moving? (That is, what is the tangential speed? Enter your answer to two sig figs in meters per second.)
