8. A person swings a 0.65 kg rock in an old fashion slingshot around
in a vertical circle. The length of the slingshot is 0.85 m. If the person
swings the rock around once in 0.55 seconds, determine:
a) The slingshot’s speed
b) The slingshot’s tension when the rock is at the bottom of the
swing
c) The slingshot’s tension when the rock is at the lowest point of
the swing
