A particle of mass 10 kg is attached to one end of a light inextensible string whose other end is fixed. The particle is pulled aside by a horizontal force until the string is at 60° to the vertical. Find the magnitude of the horizontal force and the tension in the string.
The sum of forces' vectors is :
Horizontal direction:
Vertical direction:
Then
m is known from the task and g you should take with the necessary accuracy.
