I'm working on your question...

korosh23 · Answer

ok :)

michele_laino · Answer

do you know the value of the tension of the horizontal wire?

korosh23 · Answer

No it is not given, but I know the value of the Ft, 49.3 N. My teacher gave me the ansewr, but he did not explain how he got it.

michele_laino · Answer

is Ft the tension of the string? right?

korosh23 · Answer

It says the answer for the tension in the pendulum string is 49.3 N, so yes.

michele_laino · Answer

sorry! Is Ft the final result?

korosh23 · Answer

This 49.3 N is the final answer, I want to help you to get the ansewr faster. :)
