    Chemical Eng or MechE/Aerospace double?

    I'm still deciding between these two majors. I have some interests in chemistry but I don't want to stuck with mundane mixing chemicals in a lab all day. I like MAE because I prefer hands on work (but I might hate it when I'm older) and I like to build and fix things with my hands. I guess I...

    Determine the tension in cable BC and the reactions at A.

    Also for the reactions at A, according to my textbook, it looks like a triangle with a pin on it so I am assuming reactions at A would only have a vertical force (pointing up; normal) and also and force coming from the left, pushing right at point A.
