Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Equilibrium and Elasticity: Problem Problem_59

An 817 kg construction bucket is suspended by a cable A that is attached at O to two other cables B and C, making angles $\theta_1 = 51.0^\circ$ and $\theta_2 = 66.0^\circ$ with the horizontal. Find the tensions in (a) cable A, (b) cable B, and (c) cable C. (Hint: To avoid solving two equations in two unknowns, position the axes as shown in the figure.)

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 817 kg

Find: (a) cable A; (b) cable B; (c) cable C
