    A "swing" ride at a carnival consists of chairs that are swung in a circle by L = 13.3-m cables attached at an angle of θ = 55.5° to a vertical rotating pole, as the drawing below shows. Suppose the total mass of a chair and its occupant is 182 kg. Calculate the tension in the cable attached to the chair.

    The theta is on top, the sting is pointing down, so the right angle is directly below theta. Both angles touch the pole.
