Transcribed Image Text:### Problem Statement:
**Given:**
The plate (the shaded rectangular volume) weighs 240 lbf. It is suspended by cable CD, where D is a wall anchor.
**Task:**
Find the magnitude of force in the cable CD so that the system is in static equilibrium.
**Instructions:**
Show all work.
### Diagram Explanation:
- The diagram shows a plate suspended in a 3-dimensional space.
- There is an x-y plane with reference points marked at various coordinates.
- The relevant dimensions are:
- **From point A to point B:** 10 inches
- **From point B to point D (cable length):** 59 inches
- **From point C to point D:** The diagram is drawn diagonally, indicating the cable CD attached to the wall anchor at D.
- The overall width along the y-axis is 63 inches.
- The height from the base to point D, vertically on the z-axis, is 42 inches.
- The length along the x-axis is 50 inches, and an additional extension to edge D is 21 inches.
### Objective:
To calculate the tension in cable CD ensuring static equilibrium, consider the forces and moments acting on the system.
