Hw #2 PROBLEM 2.57 For the cables of Problem 2.45, it is known that the maximum allowable tension is 600 N in cable AC and 750 N in cable BC. Determine (a) the maximum force P that can be applied at C, (b) the corresponding value of @ PROBLEM 2.72 Determine (a) the x, y, and z components of the 900-N force, (b) the angles &, 4, and @, that the force forms with the coordinate axes. PROBLEM 2.69 A load Q is applied to the pulley C, which can roll on the cable ACB. The pulley is held in the position shown by a second cable CAD, which passes over the pulley A and supports a load P. Knowing that P= 750 N, determine (a) the tension in cable ACB, (b) the magnitude of load Q. PROBLEM 2.93 Knowing that the tension is 425 Ib in cable AB and 510 Ib in cable AC, determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant of the forces exerted at A by the two cables. 4 PROBLEM 2.111 | A rectangular plate is supported by three cables as shown. Knowing that the tension in cable AC is 60 N, determine the weight of the plate. . 130 Dimensions in min PROBLEM 2.102 Three cables are used to tether a balloon as shown. Knowing that the balloon exerts an 800-N vertical force at A, determine the tension in each cable.
