4- The structure composed of two cables and a plate-like connection is to withstand a vertical
load of 3000 N . The plate with a thickness of 2 mm has a circular hole with a diameter of
D. The cables and the plate are made of steel with a tensile strength of fail=200MPa and
a factor of safety S.F =1.5 is considered. (a) Determine the minimum cross-sectional area of
the loaded cables. (b) Calculate the maximum diameter of the hole within the plate to
withstand the load [2 Marks].
