A toy airplane is tethered to ground so that it flies in a circle parallel to the ground. The tether consists of an (approximately massless) 28 m cord. The 0.75 kg plane flies at a height of 16 m. The plane completes one circle every 4.4 s. (a) What is the acceleration of the plane? (b) How strong must the cord be so that it does not break? (c) What is the upward lift force on the plane?
