Question

1) (15%) Problem 3-14 Determine the stretch in each spring for equilibrium of the 2-kg block. The springs are shown in the equilibrium position. 2) [20%] Problem 3-28 The street lights at A & B are suspended from the two poles as shown. If each light has a weight of 50lb, determine the tension in each of the three supporting cables and the required height h of the pole DE so that cable AB is horizontal. Remember to draw all free body diagrams.

          1) (15%) Problem 3-14
Determine the stretch in each spring for
equilibrium of the 2-kg block. The springs
are shown in the equilibrium position.
2) [20%] Problem 3-28
The street lights at A & B are suspended
from the two poles as shown. If each light
has a weight of 50lb, determine the
tension in each of the three supporting
cables and the required height h of the
pole DE so that cable AB is horizontal.

Step 1

To do this, we can start by drawing a free body diagram of the block. We know that the weight of the block is acting downwards, and there are two springs attached to it. Show more…
