$A$ light rigid wire of length $1 \,m$ is attached to a ball of mass $500 \,g$ at one end. The other end of the wire is fixed, so that the wire can rotate freely in the vertical plane about its fixed end. At the lowest point of the circular motion, the ball is given a horizontal velocity of $6 \,m/s$. Determine the radial component of the acceleration of the ball when this rigid wire makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the upward vertical. (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,m/s^2$)

$A$ stone of mass $150 \ g$ moves in a vertical circle at the end of a string. The radius of the circle is $70 \ cm$ and the speed of the stone at the topmost point $P$ is $3.5 \ m/s$. For the instant at which the stone passes through the highest point $P$,the centripetal force is nearly ......... $N$ (take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$).
