Killer Peter - LS Upgrade

Looks simple enough if the calculations were approved.
 
I don't get where the ~2.647 meter length is coming from in the calc, when you're getting centripetal force.
The formula is (mv^2) / r, no? r being the radius of the swing, i.e the 1.69 meter length?

2.647 meters is the radius of 5.2948106125 meters.

i don't know what this means.
5.2948106125 meters is half of the circumference, you literally multiply the 1.69m length you measured by pi, i.e getting the arc length of a 180 degree arc.
when using (mv^2) / r, you would plug ~1.69m into r because that is the radius of the circle that has the centripetal motion in it.

My mistake, I used the arc length of the semicircle instead of the radius of the semicircle.

Is he okay now?
 
This is calc thing mostly, so I'll be fine with Setto eval.
 
I’m not sure if I, as someone who isn’t a CGM, am allowed to ask this. If not, I apologize.
