Question
A horizontal 400-mm-diameter water pipe is supported over a ravine by the cable shown. The pipe and the water within it have a combined mass of 1500 kg/m of its length. Calculate the Compression C exerted by the cable on each support. The angles made by the cable with the horizontal are the same on both sides of each support.

Calculate the Compression C exerted by the cable on each support. The angles made by the cable with the horizontal are the same on both sides of each support.Explanation / Answer
mass per length=15000N area of pipe =pd^2/4 =0.1256 m^2 total weight at each part = 15000/2 =7500 N compression C =7500/0.1256 =59713 N/m^2
