A steel cable with a radius of 1.5 cm support a chairlift at a ski area.if the maximum stress is not to exceed `10^(8) Nm^(-2)`, what is the maximum load the cable can support?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the maximum load that a steel cable can support without exceeding the maximum stress, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between stress, force, and area. The formula for stress (σ) is given by: \[ \sigma = \frac{F}{A} \] where: ...
