Determine the force in cord ABC.

If the 5-kg block is suspended from the pulley B and
the sag of the cord is d = 0.15 m, determine the force in cord
ABC. Neglect the size of the pulley. Get the book: amzn.to/2h3hcFq

I think what through most of us off was that the picture is not symmetrical, the pulley is not in the middle therefore we couldn't use the Pythagorean theorem.

[@Hesterjo1]

That's what was messing me up

[@astronaut5201]

Same here.

[@SandeepPalati-sf5im]

A string ACB of length l carries a small pulley C from which a load W is suspended as shown in Fig. Find the position of equilibrium as defined by the angle a.

Such a helpful explanation, thank you!

[@jawadrafiqofficial]

it does't look like pulley is half way between chord AC

[@mohamedarab6187]

yea it doesn't it must be given

[@abbsquqa6828]

Imagine having a pulley like that on a rope. The natural weight of the pulley will make sure the pulley is in the center

The pulley is not in the center though!

[@zhakmaldhlk9102]

Ya .i think you're right

[@mitchelllower8340]

@@zhakmaldhlk9102 it can only be in the centre as it is on a pulley and there is nothing to hold it to one side the picture may be inaccurate.
