Marks: +1, -0

Two wires AO and BO support a vertical load W at O as shown in the figure below. The wires are of equal length and equal cross sectional area.
The tension in each wire is equal to:

$W/2$
W
$√2W$
$W/√2$

Validate

Solution:

T_{OA}/{\sin 135°}=T_{OB}/{\sin135°}=W/{\sin90°}

T_{OA}=T_{OB}=W/√2
