As shown in figure (a), a scoreboard is suspended above a sports arena by two cables, pinned at A, B, and C. The cables are initially horizontal and of length L. After the scoreboard is hung, a free-body diagram at node B can be developed as shown in figure (b). Assuming that the weight of each cable is negligible, determine the deflection, d (m), that results if the scoreboard weighs W= 9000 M Also, compute how much each cable is elongated. Note that each cable obeys Hooke's law such that the axial elongation is represented by L'-L= FL/(A E, where F= the axial force (N), Ac = the cable's cross-sectional area (m2), and E= the modulus of elasticity (N/m2). Use the following parameters for your calculations: L= 45 m, Ac= 6.362 x 10-4 m2, and E = 1.5 x 1011 N/m2.
