(25 Pts) A loading crane consisting of a
steel girder ABC supported by a cable
BD. A force P=9kN is applied to the
end B of the member and causes it to
rotate by =0.5. Originally the cable is
unstretched.
(a) Draw the free-body-diagram of the
beam BC.(6 Pts)
(b) Determine the required diameter of
the cable if the allowable stress is 40
MPa. (6 Pts)
(c) What is the average normal strain in
cable AB.(6 Pts)
(d) Determine the internal forces in the
beam at point E(midway between pints C and B).(7 Pts )
