3D Equilibrium
Question1
The uniform rectangular plate of mass m is suspended by three cables. Determine the tension in each
cable.

Question2
A uniform steel ring 60 in. in diameter and weighing 600 lb is lifted by the three cables, each 50 in. long,
attached at points A, B, and C as shown. Compute the tension in each cable.

Question3
The 800-lb tree trunk is known to have insect damage near point O, so the winch arrangement shown is
used to fell the tree with no cutting. If winch W1 is tightened to 200 lb and winch W2 to 300 lb, determine
the force and moment reactions at O.

Question 4
The light right-angle boom which supports the 400-kg cylinder is supported by three cables and a ball-
and-socket joint at O attached to the vertical x-y surface. Determine the reactions at O and the cable
tensions.

Question 5
Determine the tensions in cables AB, AC, and AD.

Question 6
The horizontal steel shaft has a mass of 480 kg and is suspended by a vertical cable from A and by a
second cable BC which lies in a vertical transverse plane and loops underneath the shaft. Calculate the
tensions T1 and T2 in the cables.
