A flexible chain of weight W hangs between two fixed points A and B at the same level. The inclination of the chain with the horizontal at the two points of support is `theta`. Calculated the tension of the chain at end points and also at the lower most point .
[Hints : Consider equilibrium of each half of the chain. ]
