Question: Q 2 . ABCD is a rigid body at equilibrium with a weight of 1 5 . 0 kN per meter. A , B ,

Q2. ABCD is a rigid body at equilibrium with a weight of 15.0 kN per meter. A,B,C are pin connections. Pulleys at A and B are frictionless and their weights are negligible.
A continuous cable CE is passing through pulleys A and B and subjected to a downward force F=18.51kN.
a- Draw relevant free body diagram (or diagrams)
b- Determine the length CD (=X),
c - Determine the reaction forces (or force components) on A and C pin connections.
Solutions without free body diagrams will not be graded.
