Find: Tab Ry Rn A winch at point B is used to slowly slide a box up a chute CD in a warehouse. The box weighs 603 lb and fits loosely against the walls of the chute and slides with no friction. For the position of the box given below, determine the force in the cable and the reactions between the box and chute. The chute is parallel to the xz plane. Neglect the size of the box and winch. The box is 1/3 the distance up the chute from point C. Solution Given data CA = (1/3) CD let the reactions at box and chute are Ry and Rn take the moment about a point C take the moment about a point A From the above 2 eqns you can get Reactions of box and chute. Then find the tension in the string Hence the problen is solved. I have no time for the calculations that is why i am providing guidance Thank you. .
