Three identical weights are to be suspended from the ends of a rigid light¹ "Y"-shaped frame. Each arm of the frame is to be of a different length.

How is this to be accomplished (ie, how do you shape the "Y") so that the 'system' is in equilibrium within a horizontal plane?

¹ "light" is meant as being weightless, having no concern for mass.
Note too, the colours are the radial ring extremeties of the "Y" arms within the horizontal plane.
