Question

The uniform plate has a weight of 518 lb. Determine the tension in cable C. Units in pounds are required as part of your answer! For the plate and loading shown, determine the tension TC in cable C if F = 289 N and M = 782 N-m. Ignore the mass of the plate. Units in newtons are required as part of your answer! The beam is used to support the 84 lb flowerpot. Determine the v component of the reaction at point O. Units in pounds are required as part of your answer! Determine the tension TBD in cable BD for equilibrium of the member AB (the support @ point A is a journal bearing). It is given that F1 = {14i - 0j - 87k} N and F2 = {14i + 14j - 0k} N.

Explanation / Answer

1) Moment due to weight at C = mg*sqrt(6.25) = 518 *2.5 = 1295 lb-ft

moment due to F at C = 200 * 2 = 400

Moment due to Tb and Ta at C = 2*T*7 = 14T

T = 1695/14 = 121.07

Tc = 200+518-2*121.07 = 475.85 lb
