A tractor becomes stuck in the mud, and the operator plans to use a truck positioned at point A to pull it free. a. If a 400 lb force in the direction of the tractor’s chassis (i.e., in the direction from O to B) is sufficient to free it, determine the force the truck must produce in the cable. Also, determine the portion of the cable force that is perpendicular to the tractor’s direction, since in the tractor’s precarious condition this force will tend to tip it. b. If the trees were not present, determine the ideal location on the road where the truck should be positioned, with a short explanation of why.

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.
