A hanging cable supports a single mass of 27,000 kg (Fig 3). Assuming that the weight of the cable is negligible, what is the force in the compression member that holds the ends of the cable apart? What is the force in each segment of the cable? Please solve this question numerically, using equilibrium equations. +60° 60° 90° 27,000 kg Fig (3)
