A pickup truck tailgate supports a crate (Wc = 420 lb), as shown in the figure. The tailgate weighs Wt = 90 lb and is supported by two cables (only one is shown in the figure). Each cable is made from steel with the yield stress of σyield = 36 ksi. Assume the required factor of safety is FS = 2.4 . Find the minimum required diameter for each cable when H = 16 in.,dc = 24 in., dt = 21 in., and L = 22 in.. The answer in inch
