a 50 g body hangs vertically at the end of string. a horizontal force of 20g pulls the body. what is the tension of the sting? solve graphically. draw froces to scale

darkknight:

g is grams or gravity?

barrozoghesean:

gram

darkknight:

free body diagram. First lets convert from grams to kilograms 50 g= .05 kg 20 g = .02kg |dw:1619704794072:dw| that is our visual, since g is a constant, we can have it as 10 because its close enough, our system, the string, earth, body will be accelerating downwards We can find net Force by taking .05g - .02 g and solving for it you want the tension, thats really just the .02*g pull so all you have to do is .02 times 10. Is there more parts to this question?
