The triangular trough is hinged at A and held together by cable BC at the top as shown. It retains a liquid having specific gravity of 0.826. If the width of the trough perpendicular to the paper is 3 meters, what is the tension in the cable (in kN)? Use a = 3 meters, b = 6 meters., θ = 90°. Round off to three decimal places.
