Question

The length of the 332332 -in.-diameter steel wire CD has been adjusted so that with no load applied, a gap of 116116 in. exists between the end B of the rigid beam ACB and contact point E. Knowing that E = 29 × 106 psi, determine where a 57-lb (w) block should be placed on the beam in order to cause contact between B and E. For contact, x <  in.
