Question

2. a) Consider a cable used for aerial tramway (see figure a). The span is 400 m. The unstretched length of the cable is 402 m. Its mass per unit length is 10kg. The elasticity EA = 10 N. Find the horizontal load on the two ends and the sag d.
Determine if the small sag condition is satisfied.

b) When a cable car whose mass is 500kg is hung below the cable at a horizontal distance of 100 m from the left end, find the horizontal load on the ends.

C) As the car goes along the cable, at which position you will see maximum horizontal load on the two ends?
