Finding the angle between a plumb line and the Earth's surface.
From Newton's second law: $$T_{x} = F_{turn}$$ So $$T \sin \theta = ma$$ $$T_{y} = F_{y}$$ so $$T \cos \theta = mg$$ Equate the two equations to get: $$ \frac{T \sin \theta}{a} = \frac{T \cos \alpha}{g} $$ and the angle is given by: $$tan (\theta) = \frac{a}{g} $$ where ##r = \frac{v}{w}## and...- andyonassis
