Find Tension T1 and T2 Traffic Light

Given data ∠ T2 ,

Given data ∠ T1 ,

Given data WEIGHT,

ANSWER: T-1 = N,
ANSWER: T-2 = N,

∑Fx=0 , This symbol means adding all the forces along x-axis, it must be zero for equilibrium.

∑Fx = 0; T-2x - T-1x = 0

T-1+ T-2=

∑Fy=0 , This symbol means adding all the forces along y-axis, it must be zero for equilibrium.

∑Fy = 0; T-1y + T-2y - W = 0

∑Fy=0; T-1+ T-2= W , Given Data

ANSWER: T-1 T-2

Sine of angle = opposite side of angle divided by hypotenuse.

Cosine of angle = adjacent side of angle divided by hypotenuse
