myschool the answer is wrong please
tension will be least at ybcs all the components of tension is supporting its weight so it will recquire less for
Tension is inversely proportional to the angle your wire makes with the horizontal
tension is maximum at y bcs it has a smaller angle with the horizontal
ans is B
answer is c because the inclination of the angle in z to the horizontal is 90° while the others are acute angles
The tension is greatest in Z. We know that tension is directly proportional to the horizontal angle inclination. As the inclination angle increases the tension in the strings increases. This can be proven by calculations. Therefore the correct answer is C.
The answer is C
The relationship between the tension in the string and the angle it makes with the horizontal depends on the gravitational force acting on the picture and the angle of the string. When the angle increases, the tension in the string increases as well.
in Z, the string is making the highest angle with the horizontal (90⁰)
MySchool Is correct. The Answer is B. Greatest in Y.
It is least in Z, because the Tension in the string is
Used only in lifting the picture. No horizontal componente. the tension in each string is half the picture's weight
