Question: The traffic light shown in ( Figure 1 ) has a mass of 1 9 kg . Take h = 3 . 5 m .
The traffic light shown in Figure has a mass of kg
Take h
m
Figure of
Traffic light A supported by cables AB AC and AD is shown in the xyz space with the zaxis directed upward. Ends B C and D of the cables are attached to top ends of three vertical poles. The traffic light is located on the positive zaxis at distance h from the xy plane. End B of cable AB is located in the xyz octant, meters above the xy plane, meters from the yz plane, and meters from the xz plane. End C of cable AC is located in the xyz octant, meters above the xy plane, meters from the yz plane, and meters from the xz plane. End D of cable AD is located in the xyz octant meters above the xy plane, meters from yz plane, and meters from the xz plane.
