Hi there!

We can begin by converting rpm to tangential velocity.

1 rotation = 2πR

Convert min to sec: 1 min = 60 sec

[tex]\frac{70rev}{min} * \frac{2(0.56)\pi m} {1rev} * \frac{1 min}{60 s} = \boxed{4.11 \frac{m}{s}}}[/tex]

We can find the tension by using the equation for Centripetal motion.

[tex]T = \frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]

T = Tension (? N)
m = mass (.3 kg)
v = velocity (4.11 m/s)

r = radius (0.56 m)

Plug in the values:

[tex]T = \frac{.3(4.11^2)}{0.56} \approx \boxed{90.27 N}[/tex]
