An artist has designed a bell using a long piece of pipe as the vibrating sound source. The pipe has a mass m = 36 kg and is supported by two rings (B and C) and five wires (AB, BC, BD, CE, and CG), as shown in the figure below. Note that wires BD and CG are horizontal, wire AB is vertical, and wires BC and CE are inclined by angles 0 = 65° and ¢ = 20° respectively from the horizontal. Determine the force in each of the wires. T M 0

Cable 1 a A Cable 2 В y If the picture does not load, click this link. The shaded shape is supported by Cable 1 and Cable 2 in the position shown (Drawing is NOT to scale). The shape has a uniform weight per unit area of 11kN/m2. Step 1: If A=1.9m, C=0.4m, x=1.2m, y=1.7m, z=3.5m, a = 67°, and B = 18°, find the value of B %3D needed to keep the shape in static equilibrium. Then solve for the tension in Cable 1 (T1) and the tension in Cable 2 (T2). Once you have evaluated your values for B, T1 and T2 it is recommended that you redraw your free body diagram with the correct dimensions, weights, and forces T1x, T1y, T2x, T2y and confirm that you do have your problem correctly in horizontal, vertical, and moment equilibrium. Step 2: Once you have confirmed that you free body diagram is in equilibrium, solve the following equation: Z= T1+T2 Write your final answer for Z (in kN) in the answer box below. Round your answer to two decimal places.
A 50 kg pole extends up a wall, making a 60° angle with the wall. The pole is supported by acable attached 3/4 of the way along the pole.
