At a building site a 1-ton container hangs from a crane wire and is then placed on the floor so that the wire becomes unloaded. The container is pushed to the elevator shaft where it is to be lowered as shown in Sketch m. By mistake there is a 1-m slack in the wire from the crane when the container falls into the elevator shaft. Calculate the maximum force in the wire if it has a cross-sectional steel surface area of 500 mm and an effective modulus of elasticity of 70 GPa and is 25 m long from the crane to the container. (b) Solve (a) if there is theoretically no slack.

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.

wire becomes unloaded. The container is pushed to the elevator shaft where it is to be lowered as shown
in Sketch m. By mistake there is a l-m slack in the wire from the crane when the container falls into the
elevator shaft. Calculate the maximum force in the wire if it has a cross-sectional steel surface area of
500 mm and an effective modulus of elasticity of 70 GPa and is 25 m long from the crane to the
container. (b) Solve (a) if there is theoretically no slack.

The crate shown has a mass of m 20 kg and is being pulled up a plane at 0 25 degrees (to the horizontal) by a cord parallel to the plane, as shown in the following figure: You are given that the coefficient of friction is u = 0.3. State the following: The component of weight parallel to the surface: N. The component of weight perpendicular to the surface: N. The normal reaction: N. The frictional force: N. Calculate the magnitude of the tension, P, in the chord necessary to give an acceleration parallel to the plane of 4 m/s². P is equal to N.
A uniform ladder stands on a rough floor and rests against a frictionless wall as shown in the figure. Since the floor is rough, it exerts both a normal force N1 and a frictional force f1 on the ladder. However, since the wall is frictionless, it exerts only a normal force N2 on the ladder. The ladder has a length of L = 4.0 m, a weight of WL = 69.0 N, and rests against the wall a distance d = 3.75 m above the floor. If a person with a mass of m = 90 kg is standing on the ladder, determine the following. (a) the forces exerted on the ladder when the person is halfway up the ladder (Enter the magnitude only.) N1 = N N2 = N f1 = N (b) the forces exerted on the ladder when the person is three-fourths of the way up the ladder (Enter the magnitude only.) N1 = N N2 = N f1 = N
