Distinguish between mass and weight by giving the difference.
An object $O$ with mass $4.9\text{ kg}$ hangs from a rope $A$ attached at point $P$. It is pulled to one side and kept in equilibrium by a second rope $B$, as shown in Fig. 2.1. Rope $A$ makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal, while rope $B$ is horizontal. The tension in rope $A$ is $69\text{ N}$ and the tension in rope $B$ is $T$.
On Fig. 2.1, draw arrows showing the directions of every force acting on object $O$.
Calculate the value of the angle $\theta$.
Calculate the value of the tension $T$.
Calculate the value of the angle $\theta$.
Calculate the value of the tension $T$.
