6.73 The cable of mass 1.8 kg/m is attached to a rigid support at A and passes over a smooth pulley at B. If the mass M = 40 kg is attached to the free end of the cable, find the two values of H for which the cable will be in equilibrium. (Note: The smaller value of H represents stable equilibrium.) 18 m IH M 6.74 One end of cable AB is fixed, whereas the other end passes over a smooth pulley at B. If the mass of the cable is 1.5 kg/m and the sag is H =1.8 m, Fig. P6.73, P6.74 determine the mass M that is attached to the free end of the cable.
