Question

The 55-kg cylinder is suspended from a clamping collar at C which can be positioned at any horizontal position x between the fixed supports at A and B. The cable is 11 m in length. Determine and plot the tensions in cable segments AC and BC as a function of x over the interval 0 ? x ? 10. Do your plot on a separate piece of paper. Then answer the questions to check your results. Questions: (a) If x = 2.7 m, the tension in cable AC is (b) If x = 7.1 m, the tension in cable BC is

Step 1

- Mass of the cylinder, \( m = 55 \) kg - Length of the cable, \( L = 11 \) m - Distance between supports A and B, \( AB = 10 \) m - Position of the clamping collar, \( x \) (variable) - Gravitational acceleration, \( g = 9.81 \) m/s² Show more…
