Question:

A force P is applied as shown to a uniform cone which is supported by three cords, where the lines of action of the cords pass through the vertex A of the cone. Knowing that the cone weighs 10.5 N and that P = 0.5 N, determine the tension in each cord.


A force P through applied cone weighs 10.5 N and that P = 0.5 N,
