Flying Pigs

Take measurements of the pig's mass, and of the radius, period and the angle of the string's deflection from vertical as it flies in circles.  Calculate the tension in the string in two different ways.  (1.  based on the weight, 2. based on the net force.)
Do the 2 methods come within 5% of each other?  If not, what went wrong?

Answer the 3 minilab questions in your google doc lab file.
