Step 1
This is the sum of all the forces acting on the bar, which are 3 kN, 3 kN, 3 kN, and 2 kN. So, the total load is 11 kN. Show more…

A force $\mathbf{P}$ of magnitude 90 lb is applied to member $A C D E$ that is supported by a frictionless pin at $D$ and by the cable $A B E$. Since the cable passes over a small pulley at $B$, the tension may be assumed to be the same in portions $A B$ and $B E$ of the cable. For the case when $a=3$ in., determine (a) the tension in the cable, $(b)$ the reaction at $D .$

The $6-m$ pole $A B C$ is acted upon by a $455-N$ force as shown. The pole is held by a ball-and-socket joint at $A$ and by two cables $B D$ and $B E .$ For $a=3 \mathrm{m}$, determine the tension in each cable and the reaction at $A .$
