A tetherball spinning around a pole is shown in the figure. The ball has a tangential velocity of vT. The rope that ties the ball to the top of the pole makes an angle of q with the vertical. There is a tension, T, applied to the ball by the rope, and the ball has weight, W. Four different free body diagrams (excluding the acceleration) are shown for this system. Choose which one is correct. The letter A, B, C, or D is indicated inside the drawing of the ball.                            .      .    .    .
