The adjacent figure is the part of a horizontally stretched net. section AB is stretched with a force of 10 N. The tensions in the sections BC and BF are

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
By drawing the free body diagram of point B
Let the tension in the section BC and BF are T_1 and T_{2} respectively.
From Lami's theorem
\(\frac{T_1}{\sin 30^\circ} = \frac{T_2}{\sin 30^\circ} = \frac{T}{\sin 120^\circ} \implies T = T_1 = T_2 = 10 \text{ N}\)
