In this lab, we tried to find the weight of an object based on the tension of the wire that was holding it up.
Data:
We used trigonometric ratios to find the unknown tensions.

| FBD for the experiment |
Cos58 = fty1 / 1.6
-> fty1 = 0.85N
Cos22 = fty2 / 3.5
-> fty2 = 3.25N
With these tensions, I concluded that the weight of the object must have been 4N. I was correct.
