Cart Definition and 320 Threads

I am looking over an old problem about a cart that has a pendulum on it, and you are supposed to find the equations of motion. The pendulum is made from a mass and a wire. Because wire can only support tensile loads, the tension has to be directed along the direction of the wire. Any force not...
