A light string ABCDE whose extremity A is fixed, has weights W1 and W2 attached to it at B and C. It passes round a small smooth peg at D carrying a weight of 300 N at the free end E as shown in figure. If in the equilibrium position, BC is horizontal and AB and CD make 150° and 120° with CB. Match the columns :
Column I
[A] Tension in portion AB, \(T_{AB}\)
[B] Tension in portion BC, \(T_{BC}\)
[C] Weight, \(W_1\)
[D] Weight, \(W_2\)
Column II
(1) 150 N
(2) 173 N
(3) 260 N
(4) 87 N
