Question
**Problem Statement:** A 12 ft length of steel pipe is held aloft by a crane, as shown. Determine the tension on the cable sliding ACB if the pipe weighs 600 lb and the cable length is 16 ft. (It is a common practice to attach the crane hook at the midpoint between A and B; in practice, sliding is prohibited.) **Diagram Explanation:** - The diagram illustrates a steel pipe suspended horizontally in the air. - The pipe is 12 ft long and has a weight of 600 lb. - The suspension system involves cables and a crane. - Point C is where the cable from the crane (attached at point D) meets the cable running along the length of the pipe from A to B. - The cable forms two segments: AC and CB, both supporting the pipe. **Objective:** Calculate the tension on the sections of the cable above the pipe (AC and CB) to ensure safe lifting and handling. The system takes into account that the midpoint attachment of the crane must prevent sliding along the cable.
