Question: (a) Referring to the hanging planter in Example 6-10, which of the three graphs (A, B, or C) in FIGURE 6-46 shows an accurate plot

(a) Referring to the hanging planter in Example 6-10, which of the three graphs (A, B, or C) in FIGURE 6-46 shows an accurate plot of the tensions T1 and T2 as a function of the angle u?
(b) Choose the best explanation from among the following:
I. The two tensions must be equal at some angle between θ = 0 and θ = 90°.
II. T2 is greater than T1 at all angles, and is equal to mg at θ = 90°.
III. T2 is less than T1 at all angles, and is equal to 0 at θ = 90°.
Graph C Graph B Graph A T2 T2 T1 mg mg mg T1 T2 90° 90° O 90° O

Graph C Graph B Graph A T2 T2 T1 mg mg mg T1 T2 90 90 O 90 O
