Question
On a distant planet, where the gravitational field strength is 10.0 N/kg, a
block of mass 20 kg hangs from the end of a 5-m fishing boon of mass 14 kg.
A cable is attached to the boon two meters from the pivot at an angle of 53º.
The submerged block has a mass of 20 kg, but the tension in the rope
supporting it is only 140 N (because of the buoyant force).
