The tailgate OBC is attached to the rear of a trailer via hinges at O and two restraining cables AB. (There is one cable on each side of the trailer.) The 120-lb tailgate is 4 in. thick with center of gravity at B, which is at mid-thickness. The crate is centered between the two cables and weighs 200 lb with center of gravity at G. Determine the magnitude of the tension force T in each cable. Express your answer in units of lbf. 6" 14" 20° 21" B A 21" 28"

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.
