Question:

A block of mass m₁ is attached to a cord of length L₁, which is fixed at one end. The block moves in a horizontal circle on a frictionless table. A second block of mass m₂ is attached to the first by a cord of length L₂ and also moves in a circle, as shown in Figure. If the period of the motion is T, find the tension in each cord.
