This diagram shows a picture hanging symmetrically by two cords from a nail fixed to a wall. The picture is in equilibrium.

Draw a vector diagram to represent the three forces acting on the picture in the vertical plane. Label each force clearly with its name and show the direction of each force with an arrow.

This diagram shows a picture hanging symmetrically by two cords from a nail fixed to a wall. The picture is in equilibrium.

The tension in the cord is $45 \mathrm{N}$ and the angle that each. End of the cord makes with the horizontal is $50°$ Calculate:

The vertical component of the tension in the cord
