In the figure shown a lift goes downwards with constant retardation. An observer in the lift observers a conical pendulum in the lift, revolving in a horizontal circle with time period 2 seconds. The distance between the centre of the circle and the point of suspension is 2.0 m. Find the retardation of the lift in m s-2. Use π2 = 10 and g=10 m s-2
