Question:
A thin flexible gold chain of uniform linear density has a mass of 11.9 g. It hangs between two 30.0 cm long vertical sticks (vertical axes) which are a distance of 30.0 cm apart horizontally (x-axis), as shown in the figure below which is drawn to scale.
Evaluate the magnitude of the force on the left hand pole.
I understand that F = mg/slope but I haven't figured out how to find an accurate slope. The hint I get is "
The graph shows that the lower part of the chain is horizontal at the left stick. |
