A smooth ring R of mass mkg is threaded on a light inextensible string ARB. The ends of the string are attached to fixed points A and B with A vertically above B. The string is taut and angle ARB = 90°. The angle between the part AR of the string and the vertical is 45°. The ring is held in equilibrium in this position by a force of magnitude 2.5 N, acting on the ring in the direction BR [Figure X.X]. Calculate the tension in the string and the mass of the ring.
