Q1. A mountain climber, in the process of crossing between two cliffs by a rope, pauses to rest. She weighs 550 N. As drawing shows, she is closer to the left cliff than to the right cliff, with the result that tensions in the left and right sides of the rope are not the same. Find the tensions in the rope (a) to the left and (b) to the right of mountain climber.

Q2. A trapeze artist swings in simple harmonic motion with a period of 4.2s. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81m/s2. Compute the length of the cables supporting the trapeze.
