A hot air balloon is tethered by three ropes as it lifts up into the air, as illustrated in the figure. When the balloon has reached a height of h = 6 m, it has a net uplift force of 638 N and all ropes are in tension. Determine the tension in each rope. For this question, submit your answer for the tension in rope AB. For the solution report, submit your answers for the tension in all three ropes.
