Knowing the P is 1110 N, determine the tension in the rope if the frame is in equilibrium. Express your answer in kN to the nearest 10 N.

Explanation:

It is given that the value of P is 1110 N. And, for pin connection we have only two connections which are [tex]A_{x}[/tex] and [tex]A_{y}[/tex]. Let T be the tension is rope.

So,  [tex]\sum F_{y} = 0[/tex] and [tex]A_{y}[/tex] - 1110 = 0

              [tex]A_{y} = 1110 N[/tex]

     [tex]\sum F_{x}[/tex] = 0

And,    [tex]T - A_{x}[/tex] = 0

                  T = [tex]A_{x}[/tex]

Also, [tex]\sum M_{A}[/tex] = 0

                1110(0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75) - T(0.5 + 0.1) = 0

                    2497.5 - 0.6T = 0

                         T = 4162.5 N

                             = 4.16 kN

Therefore, we can conclude that the tension in the rope if the frame is in equilibrium is 4.16 kN.
