The collar at B can freely move along the length of rod AC. Cable BD holds the collar in place while a load of P = 955 Ibf is applied to the collar. Given that the angles of a and B are 14° and 12°, respectively, determine the tension in the cable and the reaction force applied to the collar by rod AC. VP Image is not drawn to scale.
