The tension in the pulling rope can be calculated using the equation T = mgsinθ, where m is the mass of the ball, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and θ is the angle of the rope.
T = (50N)(9.8m/s2)(sin20°)
T = 49.1N
A ball weighing 50N is pulled back by a rope to an angle of 20 degrees (the rope that the ball hangs from). Find the tension in the pulling rope.
