The steel bracket below is used to connect the ends of two cables. If the applied force P=1.50kip, determine the maximum normal stress (in ksi) in the bracket. Assume the bracket is made from a rod having a diameter 1.5in.
The 150 kN load is supported by two steel cables AB and AC with the same cross-section as shown. If the tensile stress on the cables is limited to 125 MPa, determine the minimum safe diameter of the cable.
Answer:d = ___________________
The wood pole is supported by two cables of 6 mm diameter. The turnbuckles in the cables are tightened until the stress in the cables reaches 136 MPa. If the working compressive stress for wood is 15 MPa, determine the smallest permissible diameter of the pole in millimeters.
