Two lifting strops are connected at their lower ends to a common shackle from
which a load of 25 kN hangs. If the ropes make angles of 32° and 42°, respectively,
to the vertical, find the tension in each rope.
The boom AC is supported at A by a ball-and-socket joint and by two
cables BDC and CE. Cable BDC is continuous and passes over a pulley at D.
Calculate the tension in the cable BDC (in Ib) if a crate has a weight of 58.75 Ib.
