224lb 2 12 22 5 390 lb 3 300 lb X Two horses on opposite banks of a canal pull a barge moving parallel the banks by means of two horizontal ropes. The tensions in these ropes are 200 kN and 240 kN, while the angle between them is 60°. Find the resultant pull on the barge and the angle between each of the ropes and the sides of the canal. The three step pulley shown in the figure is subjected to the given couples. Compute the value of the resultant couple. Also determine the forces acting at the rim of the middle pulley -that are required to balance the given system. 40- 30 60 60 30 40 8-12 16
