Question

Transcribed Image Text:To transfer loads from frame A to one end of
the river to frame C at the other end, high
strength cables are used. When the load W is
at a distance X1 = 10 m. and x2 = 15 m., the
sag in the cable at B = 3 m.

W

Transcribed Image Text:O What maximum load W (kN) can be
transported if the max. tensile strength of
the cable is 195 kN?
O What is the total length (m) of the cable at
the given location of the load W?
® Find the tension (kN) in the cable of
segment DC if W = 40 kN.
