\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{111bcbf6-daaf-4d8d-9299-d591ac7369f1-03_231_970_258_591} A particle \(P\) of mass 0.3 kg is attached to a fixed point \(A\) by a light inextensible string of length 0.8 m . The fixed point \(O\) is 0.15 m vertically below \(A\). The particle \(P\) moves with constant speed \(v \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) in a horizontal circle with centre \(O\) (see diagram).
  1. Show that the tension in the string is 16 N .
  2. Find the value of \(v\).
