Please solve this whole problem
Problem 2(40 points): The cylindrical trough is used to transport water (of specific gravity ) along a wall. It is hinged to the wall at A and fixed from rotating by the cables BC,DE,FG, etc., that are spaced at a distance d. In the process of design you asked to model section that goes in length from the middle of one cable to the middle of the next (shown with dashed lines) and includes the cable, the water and the cylindrical trough (which you can assume to be light in comparison to the water).
FBD V=(r24)(d)
a. Complete the FBD for this section and calculate the value of wA(19 points)
b. Redraw the FBD in the figure below, but replace the distributed load by a point load (11 points)
c. Use this FBD to calculate the tension in each cable (10 points)
G??MA=0
=dots..
