In the figure provided, a 142 g ball on a 73.1 cm rope is swung in a vertical circle about a point 204 cm above the ground. If the tension in the rope when the ball is at the very bottom of the circle is 13.0 N and a pair of scissors cuts the string directly below the point of support, how far to the right of where the string was cut does the ball hit the floor?
