For the equilibrium situation shown, the cords are strong enough to withstand a maximum tension of 100 N. What is the largest value of W (in N) that they can support as shown?

Answer:

Solution:

Horizontal balance at the knot: $T sin 5 3^{\circ} = 100 cos 5 3^{\circ}$ , so $T = 100 cot 5 3^{\circ} = 75$ N

Vertical balance: $W = 100 sin 5 3^{\circ} - T cos 5 3^{\circ} = 80 - 45$

$W = 35$ N
