A joint of a frame is subjected to three tensile force P, Q and R equally inclined to each other. If P is 10 tonnes, the other forces will be

Q = 10 tonnes and R = zero
R + 10 tonnes and Q = zero
Q + R = 10 tonnes
Q - R = zero
Q and R each is equal to 10 tonnes.

Correct Answer: Q and R each is equal to 10 tonnes.
