A tugboat tows a ship at a constant velocity. The tow harness consists of a single tow cable attached to the tugboat at point A that splits at point B and attaches to the ship at points C and D. The two rope segments BC and BD angle away from the center of the ship at angles of = 33.0° and 0 = 19.0°, respectively. The tugboat pulls with a force of 1400 lb.
