Determine the force P needed to hold the cable in the position shown, i.e., so segment BC

Question:

Determine the force P needed to hold the cable in the position shown, i.e., so segment BC remains horizontal. Also, compute the sag yB and the maximum tension in the cable.

Units Used:

kN = 103 N

Given:

F1 = 4kN

F2 = 6kN

a = 4 m 

b = 6 m 

c = 3 m

d = 2 m

e = 3 m



Ув F2 b.
