After a mishap, a m=79 kg circus performer clings to a trapeze which is being pulled to the side by another circus artist as displayed in the figure. the left rope (with tension T1) is an angle theta 1=13 degrees to the vertical. The right rope (with tension T2) is an angle Theta 2= 16 degrees from the horizontal. Assume the person is momentarily motionless. Write an equation net horizontal force on the performer E fx in terms of the tensions T1 and T2 as well as the angles theta1 and theta 2. Let the right be the positive x direction. What is the sum of the forces in the y direction E Fy based on the tensions in ropes T1 and T2, the mass m of the circus performer, the acceleration due to gravity g, and the angles theta 1 and theta 2? Let up be the positive y direction. What is the value of the tension in rope 1 (T1) in newtons? What is the value of the tension in rope 2 (T2) in newtons?
