A ball with mass 1 kg is initially kept at rest by two wires, as shown in the figure. Assume that the wire weights are negligible, and g = 10 m/sĆĀ². The wire on the left is suddenly cut off. Determine the following:
A. Tension in the right-hand wire before the other wire was cut.
B. Tension in the right-hand wire at the exact instant after the wire is cut.
C. Velocity at the lowest point of the ball after the ball starts swinging. (Hint: You can use Newton's laws of motion, but using conservation of energy is easier.)
D. Tension in the wire at the lowest point of the ball.
