To do so, you have thrown a rope over two parallel branches, attached a bag containing 35.2 kg of food to their center with a bungee cord, and hoisted it up into the air. This gives the entire contraption a Y-shape, with two rope strands hanging down from the branches with angles 36⁰ and 64⁰ down from the horizontal, respectivelyFind the tension in each rope or cord: (a) The bungee cord supports a weight: (b) The strand making the 42⁰ angle supports a weight: (c) The strand making the 58⁰ angle supports a weight:
