suspended...? A bob of mass m = 0.250 kg is suspended from a fixed point with a massless string of length L = 23.0 cm. You will investigate the motion in which the string traces a conical surface with half-angle theta = 25.0 degrees.
What tangential speed v (in m/s) must the bob have so that it moves in a horizontal circle with the string making an angle 25.0 degrees with the vertical?

I'm struggling with this physics problem, and any and all help would be really appreciated. Thank you!
