let T be the tension in string. for equilibrium 2Tcoso = mg string will be straight if 0 = 90 degrees. and cos0 = 0 T= mg/2 coso . t=infinity

a 140 g ball in horizontal flight with a speed of 39.0 m+s is struck by a bat after leaving thebat the ball travels in the opposite direction with speed v2=39.0 m+s if the impact time dalta t forthe ball bat collision is 1.20 ms what average force acts on the ball

its a good question. Well the solution can be presented In the following manner. I mean not the solution, but the hint, which may be prove useful to you. Okay then, from here 2Tsinx=mg, (for body to remain in equilibrium?....... Now when the rope is pulled horizontal then the angle(x)=0.... Therefore....T=mg/2sinx and x=0 here ...so T=mg/2sin0... And the value of sin0=0 so T=infinitely large equilibrium)
