if two 150 kg masses are suspended on a wire as shown in figure 4.P6, such that the section between the loads (wire B) is horizontal, then wire B is under tension, but is doing no lifting. The entire weight of the 150 kg mass on the right is being held up by the vertical component of the force in wire C. In the same way, the mass on the left is being supported entirely by the vertical component of the force in wire A. What is the tension in wire B?
