Chapter 3, Problem 56P(choose chapter or problem)
(II) The subterranean tension ring that exerts the balancing horizontal force on the abutments for the dome in Fig. 9-34 is 36-sided, so each segment makes a \(10^{\circ}\) angle with the adjacent one (Fig. 9-70). Calculate the tension F that must exist in each segment so that the required force of \(4.2 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~N}\) can be exerted at each corner (Example 9-13).

ANSWER:
Step-by-step solution
Step 1 of 4
420 000N load is supported by two forces which makes making 50 with the horizontal. We are going to find supporting force F.
