A 34,000-lb airplane lands on an aircraft carrier and is caught by an arresting cable. The cable is inextensible and is paid out at A and B from mechanisms located below deck and consisting of pistons moving in long oil-filled cylinders. The piston-cylinder system is designed to maintain a constant tension in the cable. Knowing that the landing is 110 mi/h and the airplane travels a distance d= 90 ft after being caught, determine the tension in the cable. 35 ft 35 ft B d- The tension in the cable is kips.
