Homework Statement
We have a carousel that completes a revolution in 4,0 s. The radius of the carousel disk is 0,8 m and the length of the (massless) rope is 1m. A horsey or whatever weighing 1 kg is hanging from the rope.
Can we from this information extract the velocity of the horsey?

The Attempt at a Solution
I tried some trig manipulation but ran into trouble because I have the hypotenuse of one triangle in meters but the side of another in Newtons... I think I fried my brain attempting a solution.
