In Fig. 9-76. consider the right-hand (northernmost)

Chapter 9, Problem 64

(choose chapter or problem)

In Fig. 9-76. consider the right-hand (northernmost) section of the Golden Gate Bridge, which has a length d\ = 343 m. Assume the CG of this span is halfway between the tower and anchor. Determine FTl and Fn (which act on the northernmost cable) in terms of mg, the weight of the northernmost span, and calculate the towrer height h needed for equilibrium. Assume the roadway is supported only by the suspension cables, and neglect the mass of the cables and vertical wires. [Hint: Fp does not act on this section.]
