4. A particle of mass m slides without friction along a wire bent into the shape of a circular helix whose equation is z=a0, r=R, where r, 0, and z are the usual cylindrical coordinates, and a is a constant. The particle is attracted to the origin with a force equal to k times the distance from the origin. Write and solve the equation of motion, using the constrains to reduce the problem to one involving a single variable.

I whirl John (mass 0.27 kg) over my head in a circle. There is a spring scale between my hand and the string, so I can measure the force of tension in the string, which I find to be 2.12 N. I measure the length of the string (the radius of the circle) and find it to be 1.34 m. Assuming that John's speed is not changing, how fast is he going?
An experiment is performed using the apparatus above. A small disk of mass m, on a frictionless table is attached to one end of a string. The string passes through a hole in the table and an attached narrow, vertical plastic tube. An object of mass m; is hung at the other end of the string. A student holding the tube makes the disk rotate in a circle of constant radius r, while another student measures the period P. m,r a. Derive the equation P= 2x that relates Pand m;. The procedure is repeated, and the period P is determined for four different values of m, where m, = 0.012 kg and r= 0.80 m.
