Transcribed Image Text:

The pole OA shown in the figure below has a mass of 200 kg and a length of 10 m. The pole is fixed to the ground at point O. The power cable connected at A develops tension on the pole Tp = 500 N. The tension Tp is in the y-z plane with an angle of 15° of the yy'-axis, which is parallel to the y-axis. To help stabilize the pole, the cable CD is installed with Tcccc = 800 NN. (a) Draw the free-body diagram (FBD) of the power pole. (b) Express the tension in the power cable (Tp), the weight of pole OA (W), and the tension in cable CD (Tcp), in vector format (if, jf, kk). (c) Determine the reactions at point O. 15" Power Cable Tp-500 N C 1m t D 1.5 m The pole OA shown in the figure below has a mass of 200 kg and a length of 10 m.
