Hi there.
00:03
In this problem, we have a 150 newton sign hanging from a two -wire system.
00:11
The system is in static equilibrium.
00:15
Static equilibrium means that there's no acceleration in any direction.
00:19
And if there's no acceleration, that means our net force in both directions, vertically and horizontally, must be zero.
00:27
Our goal is to find the tension in the rightmost wire, which is attached.
00:33
To a wall at 30 degrees above the horizontal.
00:38
First thing we're going to do is draw a free body diagram.
00:43
If i draw the free body diagram for the system, we know that there is a force, the gravitational force of the ball, 150 newtons pulling down...
