Question: 5 - 3 5 . The upper portion of the crane boom consists of the jibAB, which is supported by the pin at A ,

5-35. The upper portion of the crane boom consists of the jibAB, which is supported by the pin at A, the guy line BC, and the backstay CD, each cable being separately attached to the mast at C. If the 5-kN load is supported by the hoist line, which passes over the pulley at B, determine the magnitude of the resultant force the pin exerts on the jib at A for equilibrium, the tension in the guy line BC, and the tension T in the hoist line. Neglect the weight of the jib. The pulley at B has a radius of 0.1 m .
