Homework Statement


Well the problem I have with physics is the free body diagrams. The book gives examples of those easy ones where a book slides across the table and such. This problem has me kind of confused on how to draw it.

Homework Equations


Well I know the equilibrium will result in Fx and Fy = 0. So I just need help with setting up the problem.

The Attempt at a Solution


The tensions in all the strings seem to be the same. Hmm does anyone know if any good free-body diagram website that involves drawing complex problems like this?
