32. An overhead transmission line at a river crossing is supported from two towers at heights 25m and 75 m above the water level. The horizontal distance between the towers is 250m. if the clearance required conductor and the water mid way between the between the towers is 45m and if both the towers are on the same side of the point of maximum sag of the parabolic configuration, find the stringing tension in the conductor. The weight of the conductor is 0.7kg/m.
