A horizontal beam \(A B\) is supported on two cables \(C E\) and \(D F\) as shown in Fig 13.34

(a) Calculate the values of \(P\) when the strain in \(D F\) is \(3 \times 10^{-4}\) Assume that beam \(A B\) does not bend. \(A_{a}=A_{s}=600 \mathrm{~mm}^{2}, E_{a}=70 \mathrm{GPa}, E_{s}=210 \mathrm{GPa}\).
