Circling around a pole
A mass, which is free to move on a horizontal frictionless plane, is attached to one end of a massless string which wraps partially around a frictionless vertical pole of radius r (see the top view in Fig. 2.28). You hold onto the other end of the string. At t = 0, the mass has speed v0 in the tangential direction along the dotted circle of radius R shown. Your task is to pull on the string so that the mass keeps moving along the dotted circle. You are required to do this in such a way that the string remains in contact with the pole at all times. (You will have to move your hand around the pole, of course.) What is the speed of the mass as a function of time?
