Bucket moving in a vertical circular path of radius \(R\).
A student swings a bucket containing \(0.50\text{ kg}\) of water in a vertical circle of radius \(0.90\text{ m}\). Assuming \(g = 10\text{ m/s}^2\), what is the minimum speed the bucket can have at the highest point of the circular path so that the water remains in contact with the bottom of the bucket?
