Question

The turnbuckle is tightened until the tension T in... Bookmark The turnbuckle is tightened until the tension T in the cable AB is equal to 2069 N. h=5.5 m

1- Calculate the x-component of the tension T as a a force acting on the member AD at A in N.

2- Calculate the y-component of the tension T as a a force acting on the member AD at A in N.

3- Calculate the z-component of the tension T as a a force acting on the member AD at A in N

4- Calculate the x-component of the position vector needed in the moment calculation in m.

5- Calculate the y-component of the position vector needed in the moment calculation in m.

6- Calculate the z-component of the position vector needed in the moment calculation in m.

7- Calculate the x-component of the moment of the tension T about point O in N.m

8- Calculate the y-component of the moment of the tension T about point O in N.m

9- Calculate the z-component of the moment of the tension T about point O in N.m

10- Calculate the moment of the tension T about the axis OD in N.m

Explanation / Answer

1) x componrnt of tension in AD=2069* 2/sqrt(1^2+2^2+5.5^2)

     = 697 N

2) y component = 2069* 1/sqrt(1^2+2^2+5.5^2)

    = 348.5 N

3) z component =  2069* 5.5/sqrt(1^2+2^2+5.5^2)

             =1916.6 N
