The diagram shows an 80.0cm long metal bar having a mass of .5kg that is supported by two cords. The angle the bar makes with the horizontal is 20.0 The center of mass of the bar is 45.0 cm from the left end. One cord is tied at the left end of the bar; the other is tied 10.0 cm from the right end of the bar. Find the tension in each cord.
Do I use this formula t= F s sin()? If so what is the s part for each cord?
