To apply the condition of equilibrium to three-dimensionalsystems and solve for unknown forces.
As shown, a mass is being lifted by a strut that is supported bytwo cables AC and CD. Thedimensions givenare a=6.50 fta=6.50 ft, b=5.10 ftb=5.10 ft, c=8.70 ftc=8.70 ft, d=3.30 ftd=3.30 ft,and e=4.90 fte=4.90 ft
A). A weight of 190 lb190 lb actsat C on the strut. Find the magnitude of thetension in cable AC.
B). What is the weight of an unknown hanging mass when thecompressive force in strut BC is 625 lb625 lb?
C). Find the maximum weight that the cable and strut systemcan support if the magnitude of the compressive force in the strutcannot exceed 1100 lb1100 lb and the magnitudeof tension in the cables cannotexceed 300 lb300 lb.
