Hi there!
a.
We know that:
Begin by determining the forces in the vertical direction:
W = weight of traffic light
T₁sinθ = vertical component of T₁
T₂sinθ = vertical component of T₂
b.
The ropes provide a horizontal force:
T₁cosθ = Horizontal component of T1
T₂cosθ = Horizontal component of T2
Thus:
0 = T₁cosθ - T₂cosθ
T₁cosθ = T₂cosθ
T₁ = T₂
c.
Since the angles for both ropes are the same, we can say that:
T₁ = T₂
Sum the forces:
ΣFy = T₁sinθ + T₁sinθ - W = 0
2T₁sinθ = W
d.
Now, we can begin by solving for the tensions:
2T₁sinθ = W

Light intensity and distance is
interrelated. When the distance changes, the intensity of light changes. This relationship
is called inverse-square relationship. The inverse-square relationship refers
to the fact that when distance changes, light intensity also changes: inverse
because when distance decreases, light density increases and when distance
increases, the latter decreases; square refers to the fact that light intensity
and distance is not a one-to-one relationship.
