2. The wire AE is stretched between the corners A and E of a bent plate. Knowing that the tension in the wire is 435 N, determine: (a) The three components of the force exerted by the wire on corner A. (b) The three angles defining the direction of the force mentioned in (a). (c) The moment about the point B of the force exerted by the wire on corner E. (d) The moment about the line CD of the force exerted by the wire on corner E. Copyright O The McGraw- Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or disptay 90 mm 120 mm 160 mm В 120 mm E
