flexible wire cable weighing 65N/m over two frictionless pulleys 110m apart and carrying one 11kn weight at each end. The weight of the cable is assumed to be uniformly distributed horizontally. The cable extends 5.5m beyond each pulley to the point where they are attached to the weights. Compute the tension at the lowest point of the cable, the sag at mid span of the flexible wire cable, the total length of the wire cable, the tension at the highest point of the cable.

7. A flexible wire cable weighing 65N/m over two frictionless pulleys 110m apart and
carrying one 11kn weight at each end. The weight of the cable is assumed to be
uniformly distributed horizontally. The cable extends 5.5m beyond each pulley to the
point where they are attached to the weights. Compute the tension at the lowest point
of the cable, the sag at mid span of the flexible wire cable, the total length of the wire cable, the tension at the highest point of the cable.
