You are ordering steel cable for a 250 foot long zip-line you are building in your back yard. The cable can be ordered in diameters with 1/16 inch increments. (1/16, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, etc.) The manufacturer states that the cable has a Yield Stress of 108,000 psi and a Modulus of Elasticity of 10,186,000 psi. You have determined that the maximum load the cable should be able to support without exceeding the Yield Stress is 10,000 lbs.
