A steel cable with a radius of 1.5 cm supports a chairlift at a ski area. If the maximum stress is not to exceed 108Nm?2, what is the maximum load the cable can support
Added by Shirlin S.
Step 1
Given radius, \(r = 1.5\) cm = \(1.5 \times 10^{-2}\) m Cross-sectional area, \(A = \pi r^2\) \(A = \pi \times (1.5 \times 10^{-2})^2\) \(A = \pi \times 2.25 \times 10^{-4}\) \(A = 7.07 \times 10^{-4}\) m² Show more…
