a The net force is zero because the stage light is in equilibrium.

b Vertical component of T1 = weight
vertical component of T1 = mg = 5.2 9.81 51 N
c T1 cos 28 = 51 N

T1 =
= 57.8 N 58 N
cos 28
d T2 = T1 sin 28 (the net horizontal force = 0)
T2 = 57.8 sin 28 27 N
You can also calculate T1 and T2
by drawing the triangle of forces:

b Apart from the horizontal component 150 m s1, the bullet also has a vertical component
because of the acceleration due to gravity. The resultant velocity is greater than 150 m s1.
