11 (b)
Consider the 75kg crate shown in the space diagram of fig. Q11 (b). This crate was lying between two buildings, and it is now being lifted on a truck, which will remove it. The crate is supported by a vertical cable, which is joined at A to two ropes which pass over pulleys attached to the buildings at B and C. It is desired to determine the tension in each of the ropes AB and C.
