As shown in Fig. 5-51, body C (2.9 kg) and body D (1.9 kg) are suspended from a rigid support by inextensible wires B and A, each of length 1.0 m. Wire B has negligible mass, wire A has a uniform density of 0.20 kg/m. The whole system undergoes an upward acceleration of magnitude `0.50" m"//"s"^(2)`. Find the tension at the midpoint in (a) wire A and (b) wire B.
