A "swing" ride at a carnival consists of chairs that are swung in a circle by 12.0 m cables attached to a vertical rotating pole, as the drawing shows. (θ = 60.0°) Suppose the total mass of a chair and its occupant is 244 kg.

 
(a) Determine the tension in the cable attached to the chair.
 
(b) Find the speed of the chair.
