Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 26P
Typical performance curves for a centrifugal pump, tested with three different impeller diameters in a single casing, are shown. Specify the flow rate and head produced by the pump at its best efficiency point with a 12-in.-diameter impeller. Scale these data to predict the performance of this pump when tested with 11-in. and 13-in.-diameter impellers. Comment on the accuracy of the scaling procedure.

Please can you help me answer the question added in the images below. I have also attatched an image of the k calculator i have to use.
The parabolic cable running between the two transmission towers is carrying a uniformly distributed load of 15 kN/m over a span of L = 20 m with a sag of y = 5 m. The left end of the cable is connected at point F as shown in the spot detail. The protruding members of the transmission tower is to be analyzed assuming pin connection at joints A and K. Given: a = 1.2 m, b = 0.8 m, c = 1.0 m, d = 0.6 m, and e = 0.3 m. Calculate the following with complete fbd: indicate if in compression or tension on the membersa. Maximum and minimum tension of the cable, in kN.b. Length of the cable, in m.
