Chapter 3, Problem 46P

The crate has a weight of 550 lb. Determine the force in each supporting cable. D

Determine the maximum weight of the bucket that the wire system can support so that no single wire develops a tension exceeding 100 lb.

Determine the ratio P/Q of the forces that are required to maintain equilibrium of the mechanism for an arbitrary angle 0. Neglect the weight of the mechanism.

Answer the following questions

Determine the tensile forces in the cables BA, BC, CD, and CE assuming W= 100 kN. CABLES AVERAGE 2

Determine the force in each cable needed to support the 15-kN platform. Set d= 0.4 m. 15KN

The connection on point A is a ball and socket while on point C is a guided roller. Determine the force on cable DE and the support reactions if there is a load of 800 N in point B. Neglect the weight of the bar.

Determine the force in each cable needed to support the 200-lb construction beam. 10 ft 9ft 8 ft

Determine the force in each cable if the weight of the box is 700 lb.
