Q.1.1 A cable of uniform cross-sectional area is stretched between two supports 80 m apart with one end 5 m above the other (as in figure below). The cable is loaded with uniformly distributed load of 7 kN/m and the sag of the cable measured from the higher end is 6 m. Calculate horizontal tension in the cable maximum tension in the cable. 7 kNm 80 m d= 5 m
