A tight rope walker takes a break when walking across a tight rope. The angle in the picture is . What is the tension in the rope, in newtons?
![A child is on a swing. An adult tied a rope to the seat of the swing and pulled the swing forward. That rope is now horizontal, and the ropes attached to the swing structure make an angle θ with the vertical, as shown. (Note: There are two ropes tied to the chair that go to the top of the swing structure, one on each side of the child. We just see one in the in the image since we are looking at a side view. ) The child has a mass m. The adult uses the rope to hold the child at rest. What is the tension in the horizontal rope, and what are the tensions in each of the ropes connecting the seat to the top of the swing structure? [Use the following values. θ = 50.0∘, m = 25.0 kg ]](https://www.doubtrix.com/uploads/editor/8983639982scsdsdkvvh.png)
