If the bucket weights 50 lb, determine thetension developed in each of the wires.
3. The unstretched length of an elastic cord is made to run vertically from the ceiling
down to the floor. If the mid-portion of the elastic cord is pulled with a 15 kg horizontal
force, thus stretching the chord and making the cord inclined with a slope of 4/5,
determine the tension in the chord.
Determine the maximum weight of the bucket that the wire system can support so that no single wire develops a tension exceeding 100 lb.
