Chapter 7.4, Problem 119P
Show that the deflection curve of the cable discussed in Example 7.13 reduces to Eq. 4 in Example 7.12 when the hyperbolic cosine function is expanded in terms of a series and only the first two terms are retained. (The answer indicates that the catenary may be replaced by a parabola in the analysis of problems in which the sag is small In this case, the cable weight is assumed to be uniformly distributed along the horizontal.)
