6.66 A uniform 80-m pipe that weighs 960 kN is supported entirely by a cable AB of negligible weight. Determine the length of the cable and the maximum force in the cable. (Hint: First locate the point O where the cable is tangent to the pipe.)
Calculate for the tension in each cable, and their angles from the horizontal. The Vertical Height
of Point A and B is 10 ft.
