The upper portion of the crane boomconsists of the jib AB, which is supported by the pin at A, theguide line BC, and the backstay CD,each cable being separatelyattached to the mast at C. If the 5kN load is supported by thehoist line, which passes over the pulley at B, determine themagnitude ofthe resultant force the pin exerts on the jib at A forequilibrium, the tension in the guide line BC, and the tension T inthe hoist line. Neglect the weight of thejib. The pulley at B hasa radius of 0.1m.-The answers for this are: T=5kN,Tension(BC)=16.4kN, andF(A)=20.6kN.
