Answer:
[tex]T=8.1N[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Mass m=0.40
Radius r=1.8m
Angle Beneath the Horizontal \theta =40 \textdegree
Speed v=5.0m/s
The Tension Angle
[tex]\alpha=90-\theta\\\\\alpha=90-40[/tex]
[tex]\alpha=50 \textdegree[/tex]
Generally the equation for Tension is is mathematically given by
[tex]T=\frac{mv^2}{r}+mgcos \alpha[/tex]
[tex]T=\frac{0.40*5^2}{1.8}+0.40*5cos50[/tex]
[tex]T=8.1N[/tex]
