A load of 2000 lb is to be supported from a construction crane by two vertical steel cables for which the Yield Stress in tension is 70 ksi and the Elastic Modulus is 29,000 ksi. Before the load is applied, cable AB is 60 inches long and cable AC is 60.04 inches long. a. Cable AC has a cross-sectional area of 0.02 in2 . Determine the cross-sectional area of cable AB, if the load is to be shared equally between both cables. b. Determine if either of the cables will yield. If so, which one?
