Concept explainers
Sneezlee’s wire supports are repositioned as shown. How does the tension in each wire compare with the tension of the previous question?
To Compare: The tension in each wire with the weight of the bird.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
In previous question, the wires were nearly vertical due to which in each wire, the tension was greater than the half of the weight of the bird.
The formula of tension calculated from the previous problem:
Where,
According to the formula, if the angle of each rope with the horizontal is
Conclusion:
Hence, the tension in each wire would be equal to the weight of the bird, if angle of the rope is equal to
