The vertical post is secured by three cables. The cables are pre-tensioned so that the resultant of the cable forces F, Q, and P is directed along the z-axis. If F = 120 lb, find P and Q.
Q3 / The rectangular plate is supported by hinges along its side BC and by the
cable AE. If the cable tension is 300 N, determine the projection onto line BC of
the force exerted on the plate by the cable. Note that E is the midpoint of the
horizontal upper edge of the structural support.
