The structure is subjected to the loading shown. Member AD is supported by a cable AB and a roller at C and fits through a smooth circular hole at D. Member ED is supported by a roller at D and a pole that fits in a smooth snug circular hole at E. Determine the x, y, z components of reaction at E and the tension in cable AB.

Units Used:

kN = 103 N

Given:

F = (0 0 -2.5) kN

a = 0.5 m 

b = 0.4 m 

c = 0.3 m

d = 0.3 m

e = 0.8 m
