Question

Assume the following equilibrium equations.

x-direction: − 0.65 ⋅ A C + 0.35 ⋅ A D = 0 

y-direction: − 0.35 ⋅ A C − 0.45 ⋅ A D + 12 = 0 

z-direction: A B + 0.65 ⋅ A C + 0.65 ⋅ A D − 25 = 0 

a) Determine the tension in kN in cable AB. (Give your answer to 0 decimal places.)

b) Determine the tension in kN in cable AC. (Give your answer to 0 decimal places.)

c) Determine the tension in kN in cable AD. (Give your answer to 0 decimal places.)
