The T-shaped object pivots about the base connection to the ground (the origin) and is held at an angle of 0 = 63 by the red cord from point B to point A which determines the direction of the tension force acting on the object at point B. Given the couple causing the object to tilt is M = 110.2k Nm and that the dimension b = 287 mm, determine the magnitude of the tension force in the red cord which supplies the equal and opposite moment. b 2/2 2 2/2 0 The coordinates of the point B are: The vector for the cord BA is: The unit vector for the Tension force is: The magnitude of the Tension force is therefore: The vector for the tension force is: 1:00 B 1100 y b mm () 7mm j N Nij A
