Concept explainers

Buckling of columns

The column is described as a vertical member of the structure that carries an axial compressive load, and buckling is a lateral deformation of the column under the application of load.

Question

3. The unstretched length of an elastic cord is made to run vertically from the ceiling
down to the floor. If the mid-portion of the elastic cord is pulled with a 15 kg horizontal
force, thus stretching the chord and making the cord inclined with a slope of 4/5,
determine the tension in the chord.
