A person is to be released from rest on a swing pulled away from the vertical by an angle of 20.0 ∘ . The two frayed ropes of the swing are 2.75 m long, and will break if the tension in either of them exceeds 345 N. What is the maximum weight the person can have and not break the ropes? If the person is released at an angle greater than 20 degrees does the max weight increase, decrease, or stay the same?
