Question
Three cables intersect at B in order to stabilize a telephone pole, as shown in the figure. The unit vector giving the direction of each
cable is:
u1 = {(sqrt(6)/4)i -(sqrt(6)/4)j -(1/2)k}
u2 = {(2/sqrt(5))j -(1/ sqrt(5))k}
u3 = {-(1/sqrt(6))i +(1/sqrt(6))j -(2/sqrt(6))k)
Find:
(1) RAijk, the reaction force at A in {ijk) format
(2) MAijk, the resultant moment at A in {ijk} format
An example of {i,j,k) form: 22.4i-11.3j-70.3k
