A pendulum is hanging from the ceiling of a cage. When the cage is moving up with certain acceleration and when it is moving down with the same acceleration, the tensions in the string are T_(1) and T_2 respectively. When the cage moves horizontally with the same acceleration, the tension in the string is,
