The welded tubular frame is secured to the horizontal x-y plane by a ball-and-socket joint at A and receives support from the loose-fitting ring at B. Under the action of the 2-kN Iload, rotation about a line from A to B is prevented by the cable CD, and the frame is stable in the position shown. Neglect the weight of the frame compared with the applied load and determine the tension T in the cable, the reaction at the ring, and the reaction components at A. T, = 0.833 kN, T, = 1.042 kN, T, = -2.5 kN, A, = -125 kN, A, = -3.04 kN and A, =-1.56 kN. C 3 m 2.5 m 4.5 m 2 kN 6 m 2.5 m A %3D 1 m %3D Sempe Pr Te
