Celeste is spinning her 46 gram yo-yo in a circle on a frictionless air hockey table by holding onto the end of the 85 cm-long string. The motion has a frequency of 0.95 Hz.
a) Calculate the centripetal acceleration of the yo-yo, in g's.
b) From a free-body diagram of the yo-yo, calculate all the forces.
