10.5. The transverse deflection of a flexible cable or string (Fig. 10.11) is governed by the equation [10.3] dw Tw dx2 R = + px(x-1) 2R (E1) where p is the distributed transverse load, T is the tension in the cable, and R is the flexural stiffness. Find the deflection of a cable using the shooting method with the following data: 1 = 100 in, T P(x) 444444 = 1000 lb, p = 100 lb/in, and R = 50 106 lb-in. w(x) Figure 10.11 Transverse deflection of a cable. 10.5.
