For the arch structure shown to the right: (a) Determine the tension in the cable. (b) Calculate the internal forces (axial, shear, moment) in the arch at pt. D immediately to the left of the \( 15 \mathrm{kN} \) load. (c) Is the arch a funicular shape for the loading shown? Yes or No Note that the structure is a tied arch with pinned support at pt. A, roller support at pt. C, and a hinge at pt. B. Arch members \( A B \) and \( B C \) are continuous sections. The geometry of the arch centerline can be expressed by the equation provided in the figure.
