The left-hand cable has a tension T1 and makes an angle of 50 degree with the horizontal. The right-hand cable has a tension T3 and makes an angle of 43 degree with the horizontal. A W1 weight is on the left and a W2 weight is on the right. The cable connecting the two weights has a tension T2 of 61 Newtons and is horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.

Question

Determine the mass M2 which is on the right in kg.

Answer 1

I cant visulize the diagram.

Answer 2

It's an upside down trapezoid. with 50 degrees on the left top corner. a 43 degrees on the right top corner. T2 which is 61N is the shorter line on the bottom on the trapezoid. and M1 is hanging on T2 left side and M1 is hanging on T2 right side.
Does that make sense?? sorry if my explanation is confusing.
