A 10 N picture frame is hung by two wires making an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical. Calculate the tension in each wire.
Q1. A 10 N picture frame is hung by two wires making an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical. Calculate the tension in each wire.
Answer: 10.0 N
Explanation: Using 2T cos(theta) = W where theta is 60 degrees from vertical, T = 10 / (2 * 0.5) = 10 N. Option B is incorrect.
