θ = 45° from the horizontal. The angle ϕ is 25°. Calculate the tension in the cable (in N).
In the figure above, a 10 kg sphere is supported on a frictionless plane inclined at angleLiked it? try some more

I was trying with g=10 SI units. You must mention g properly.
Yes indeed it is !

Could you please tell me how to add diagrams in solutions? :D

Yes, you can use markdown links. Go to an image sharing site (say imgur.com), and upload your image there; then type ![Image](link) , and you're done!
Hey but what if we resolve the forces perpendicular to the plane ???? Then we don't get the same result??
i took g=10.you had to mentioned that😞
Good solution. Up voted.
Wtf you didnt say g = 9.8
By a free boddy diagram
∑ x = m g sin 4 5 ° − T c o s 2 5 ° = 0
m g sin 4 5 ° = T cos 2 5 °
T = cos 2 5 m g sin 4 5 °
T = cos 2 5 ° 9 8 × sin 4 5 ° ≈ 7 6 . 4 6
I did by resolving forces along vertical and horizontal. But resolving along the inclined is definitely the best solution.

Abhishek, is this a problem of book Resnic Halliday (Principles of Physics).?
If we resolve mg parallel to the plane.It will come out to be
m g s i n θ (in downward direction)
and if we resolve Tension in the string(T) parallel to the plane. It will come out to be
T c o s ϕ (in upward direction)
As sphere is at rest so
m g s i n θ = T c o s ϕ
So
T = c o s ( 2 5 ) 2 9 8
On putting value of cos(25) we will get T=76.46N
It will be nice to explain with diagram.Could anyone tell me how to add diagrams in solutions?
