Question

Consider the figure shown below. Assume that point A is fixed and point B is adjustable and may be moved horizontally from x = 60 inches to x = 100 inches. Use a computer to determine the tension in cable AC and the tension in cable BC for x = 60 inches to x = 100 inches in 2 inch increments. Tabulate the results. Also produce two computer generated graphs for Tac vs x and Tbc vs x over the same range of x. Determine from your table or graphs where the minimum values of Tac and Tbc occur. If each cable can support a maximum tension of 3000 lb. what is the allowable range for X? Note: It is always a good idea to check your results by hand for at least one set of calculation Pick a value of x in the desired range, analyze the problem and compare the results to your computer solution.
