Three cables are subjected to the horizontal force F at A as shown. The tension force TAB in cable AB is given 20 kN and joint A is in equilibrium.
1) Draw the force diagram of the joint A;
2) Determine the unit
3) Form three equilibrium equations in a scalar form for solving the magnitude of tension forces TAC, TAD, and horizontal force F;
4) Solve the magnitude of tension forces TAC, TAD, and horizontal force F.
[Partial Ans: TAC = 50.7 (T) kN, F = 128 kN (right x direction)]
