5. Based on the attached figure: Determine the tension between cable AB. And the tension between AC. Determine the x, y, and z components of reaction at support D using scalar notation.
The diagram shows a rod supported by a ball-and-socket joint at point \(D\) and cables \(AB\) and \(AC\). The force \(F\) is 700 N, applied at an angle of 30° from the vertical. The distance \(x\) is 5 meters. The geometric representation includes:

- A coordinate system with x, y, and z axes.
- Point \(A\) is located on the x-axis at a distance determined by \(x = 5\) meters.
- Point \(B\) is elevated along the z-axis, 3 meters above the x-y plane.
- Point \(C\) is 2 meters along the z-axis from point \(D\).
- The rod extends from the support point \(D\), which is aligned with the y-axis, to some point in the x-y plane.

This setup illustrates the forces and supports acting on the rod, demonstrating the mechanics of how the rod is held in equilibrium by the joint and cables.
