Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A cable is 100 meters long and designed to carry a load of 1000 N uniformly. Calculate the sag if the horizontal force in the cable is 500 N.
💡 Hint: Plug in the values carefully into the formula.
Question 2
Describe how real-world factors like wind or temperature can affect the calculations of tension and sag in cable structures.
💡 Hint: Think about how these external conditions would influence the stability of the cable.
