The diagram shows two particles, \(A\) and \(B\), of masses 0.2 kg and 0.1 kg respectively. The particles are suspended below a horizontal ceiling by two strings, \(A P\) and \(B Q\), attached to fixed points \(P\) and \(Q\) on the ceiling. The particles are connected by a horizontal string, \(A B\). Angle \(A P Q = 45 ^ { \circ }\) and \(B Q P = \theta ^ { \circ }\). Each string is light and inextensible. The particles are in equilibrium.
- Find the value of the tension in the string \(A B\).
