Problem

10\,\text{kg}

mass is suspended from the ceiling by two light strings. One string makes an angle of

30^{\circ}

with the horizontal and the other makes

60^{\circ}

with the horizontal. The system is at rest. What is the tension in the string that makes

30^{\circ}

with the horizontal? (Take

g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}

.) a)
