Question
In a repair shop a truck engine that has mass 425 kg is held in place by four light cables (Figure 1). Cable A is horizontal, cables B and D are vertical, and cable C makes an angle of 37.1 with a vertical wall. Tension in cable A is 721 N. What is the tension in cable b? What is the tension in cable c?
