If you held this string at one end and twirled it in a circle above your head, so that the object moves in a plane parallel to the ground, what is the maximum speed that the object at the end of the string can have without breaking the string

    v = √ T L / m = √ Y L² / m

    Explanation:

    The maximum tension in a string is related to Young's modulus, in general the value is Young's modulus by the length of the string, suppose the value is T

    T = Y L

    Let's use Newton's second law

    F = m a

    The acceleration is centripetal

    a = v² / r

    T = m v² / L

    v = √ T L / m

    If we change the tension for

    T = Y L

    v = √ Y L² / m
