The tension, T at each end of a chain has magnitude 25N. What is the weight of the chain?
I am having trouble setting this up. In the diagram below, everything except the red is what is shown in the book. The red is what I think the possible vectors are.
However, if we are talking about weight, I would think the vector would be going completely South. I originally thought the Tension(25 N) originally went along the black line that makes the angle to the ground, however it says "N' so I am pretty sure that means it is going completely North.
Can anyone help me set up this problem and the diagram? I don't need help solving it for now, just setting it up.
