A particle \(Q\) of mass 0.2 kg is held in equilibrium by two light inextensible strings \(P Q\) and \(Q R . P\) is a fixed point on a vertical wall and \(R\) is a fixed point on a horizontal floor. The angles which strings \(P Q\) and \(Q R\) make with the horizontal are \(60 ^ { \circ }\) and \(30 ^ { \circ }\) respectively (see diagram).
Find the tensions in the two strings.
