Learning outcome: Apply newton's Laws D. Problem: You are taking a summer training job at the Ministry of Environment and Climate Affairs. Your task is to search for oil spills (areas) in the Gulf of Oman. In order to explore the surface of the sea and determine the size and location of the spill, you and your supervisor fly a helicopter over the Gulf of Oman near Muscat at a constant altitude of 2000 ft (1 ft = 0.3048 m). A laser sensor, of mass 129 kg, which can determine the sizes of the oily areas in water, hangs by a cable from the bottom of the helicopter. Your supervisor wants to accelerate the helicopter horizontally at 2.84, which will cause the cable to make an angle with the vertical. However, he is worried that the cable may break at this acceleration, as the maximum tension the cable can handle is 4500 N.
