Cable Definition and 611 Threads

Figure 5-58 shows a section of an airplane cable-car system. The maximum permissible mass of each car with occupants is 3000 kg. The cars, riding on a support cable, are pulled by a second cable attached to the support tower on each car. Assume that the cables are taut and inclined at angle =...

An 800-kg car is being towed with a constant speed along a slope. What is the tension in the cable? Neglect all resistive forces. The slope it is on is 20 degrees and the angle that the truck is towing at is 30 degrees.

[FONT=Comic Sans MS]We've installed a 'zip line' and are trying to figure the maximum load it can safely carry. To date, it has handled, without complaint, 210 lbs. This is fine except over time an overload will obviously weaken the cable - we don't want to do that! The line is a 3/8th...

A uniform steel cable of weight mg is suspended between two equal elevation points. Determine the tension in the cable (a) at its lowest point, and (b) the points of attachment. Judging from the problem, it seems that the tension in (a) and (b) is different. Is this necessarily so? If it is...

I am wondering if it is possible to hook up 2 computers, with 2 separate cable modems, under the same broadband account. I already have broadband, and want to hook a second computer. I figured an easy way to do this, without running CAT 5 all over the place, and not hassling with wireless...

say u r in a elevator, and suddenly the cable that holds the elevator got disconnected and u r falling to the ground while standing,and dropping really fast from 15th floor. you would die right ? this is the question.. just before the elevator crashes on the surface what if you jump ? would...

A truck is pulling a car out of a ditchwith a steel cable that is 9.1 meters long and has a radius of .5cm. When the car just begins to move the tension of the cable is 890N. How much has the cable stretched? converted .5cm to .005m area of the wire A = pie*r^2 Y = 20E10 (steel) used the...

ive been wrestling with this for an hour and a half, and all I've got it Theta y and Fy. a tree is being supported by cables. the tension in cable AB is 4.2 KN. all it gives me to go on is 2 angles. it 40 deg toward z axis from x axis. and the cable makes an angle of 40 deg with the ground...

Picture is attached. The above figure shows a uniform iron beam of mass 254 kg and length L = 3 m. The cable holding the beam in place can take a tension of 1300 N before it breaks. (You may ignore the small mass of the cable in this calculation.) ====== a)What minimum length of the...

4) A rescue helicopter is lifting a man (weight- 822 N) from a capsized boat by the means of a cable and harness. (a) What is the tension in the cable when the man is given an initial upward acceleration of 1.10m/s^2? (b) What is the tension during the remainder of the rescue when he is pulled...
