HW 7 Problem - Equilibrium of a Particle A strut CB is guyed back to a wall support through cable BA. Two forces are applied to the concurrent joint at B. Determine the tension in cable BA and the force in member CB for a condition of equilibrium to occur. ✓ First step: construct a FBD of the concurrent joint B. ✓ Intuitively, guess at the direction for each of the two unknown forces. ✓ Incorrect assumptions about the force directions will be revealed at the end of the process with a negative answer. ✓ A negative sign simply mean that the direction of the force was incorrectly assumed in the initial FBD, however, the magnitude remains unaffected. B F =200 KN F =500 KN A boom and cable with two loads F =200 KN F =500 KN FBD of point B
