How to make an interactive "string" in flash that reacts to gravity?

I want to do a project in flash cs4, where there's a lightbulb hanging from the top of the screen, with a simple white string hanging next to it.

when the user pulls the string, it will react realistically, and when they release it, the lightbulb will turn on, and the string will bounce up and swing around like a real string.

Can anyone help me?
 
You have to write it in ActionScript (of course). First, don't think o fit as text...this of it as something simple like a ball. When you are done with the ball, then change the drawing of the ball to a letter. Once you have a letter mastered, then do a tail (aka a series of balls that are related to each other).

The link below should get you started.
