A 100-N weight hangs from the ceiling on a rope. Someone pushes on the weight with a continuous horizontal force, thereby moving it off to the side a little so that it comes to rest at a bit of an angle with respect to the vertical. As a result, the tension in the rope.

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Equilibrium of the weight at angle $θ$ to the vertical: $T cos θ = M g \Rightarrow T = \frac{M g}{cos θ}$ .

Since $cos θ < 1$ , $T > M g = 100 N$ : the tension increases.
