Question

Find the tension in cords A, B, and C for an object with weight w suspended by cords as shown below.

Diagram showing forces in equilibrium with cords A, B, and C supporting weight W at angles.

Accepted Answer

T_A = w; T_B = 1.15w; T_C = w

Answer

T_A = 0.700w; T_B = 0.417w; T_C = 0

Answer

T_A = w; T_B = 1.15w; T_C = 0

Answer

T_A = 0.700w; T_B = 0.417w; T_C = w

Answer

T_A = 0.872w; T_B = 1.68w; T_C = w
