A pendulum bob of mass 0.15 kg0.15\,\text{kg} attached to a string of length 1.2 m1.2\,\text{m} is pulled aside by 3.0∘3.0^\circ and held. Calculate the magnitude of the restoring force acting on the bob at this instant. (Use g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-2}.) a) 0.044 N0.044\,\text{N} b) 0.052 N0.052\,\text{N} c) 0.077 N0.077\,\text{N} d) 0.78 N0.78\,\text{N}
