    Physics question: Finding 2 angles with given tensions and mass

    Fy = 0 = 80 sin theta + 80 sin theta - 1.00 x 10^2 0=160 sin θ- 100 N 0=60 sin θ -60=sin θ

    Physics question: Finding 2 angles with given tensions and mass

    Thanks tiny tim! Nice to meet you! :) It's kinda hard to solve for theta. I've been setting up the problem and it comes out not right.

    Physics question: Finding 2 angles with given tensions and mass

    Homework Statement Suppose the traffic light (1.00 x 10^2 N) is hung so that the tensions T1 and T2 are both equal to 80.0 N. Find the new angles they make with respect to the x axis. (By symmetry, these angles will be the same.) Homework Equations Fx = 0 = -T1 cos theta + T2 cos theta Fy...
