5/136 A cable weighing 25 newtons per meter of length is suspended from point A and passes over the small pulley at B. Calculate the mass m of the attached cylinder which will produce the sag of 9 m. Also determine the horizontal dis- tance from A to C. Because of the small sag-to-span ratio, use the approximation of a parabolic cable. A 100 m 12 m PROBLEM 5/136 с 9 m B m *5/137 Repeat Prob. 5/136, but do not use the approxima- tion of a parabolic cable. Compare your results with the printed answer for Prob. 5/136.
