Question

### Problem 3/59

**Description:**
The vertical mast supports a 4 kN force and is constrained by two fixed cables \( BC \) and \( BD \) and by a ball-and-socket connection at \( A \). Calculate the tension \( T_1 \) in \( BD \). Can this be accomplished by using only one equilibrium equation?

**Diagram Description:**
- The diagram presents a three-dimensional view of the system.
- There is a vertical mast, denoted by the segment \( AB \), which is 10 meters in total height, segregated into two equal parts: \( 5 \) meters each above and below a connector.
- The mast is held in place by two cables \( BC \) and \( BD \).
- Cable \( BC \) is anchored to point \( C \), which lies on the x-y plane, 5 meters in the positive y and x directions from point \( A \).
- Cable \( BD \) is anchored to point \( D \), which is 4 meters in the x-direction and 2 meters in the y-direction from \( A \).
- A 4 kN horizontal force is applied at point \( B \) towards point \( C \).
- The coordinates in the diagram are labeled, indicating points \( A, B, C, D \), with a clear depiction of distances between these points.

### Objectives:
1. Identify the tension \( T_1 \) in cable \( BD \).
2. Evaluate if this tension can be determined using only one equation of equilibrium.

The given data and the positioning of the mast and cables are crucial for forming equilibrium equations and solving for the unknown tension in the system.
