Bead A has negligible weight and slides without friction on rigid fi ed bar BC. An elastic cord AD, which supports a 10 lb tensile force, is attached to the bead. At the instant shown, the bead has zero velocity. For the position of the bead given below, determine the vector components of the cord tension that act parallel and perpendicular to direction BC of the bar (your answers should be vectors). Due to the cord tension, will the bead slide toward point B or C?

Bead A is 1/4 the distance from point B to point C.
