4. The hoist shown is used to position heavy workpieces in a lathe. If the cable between pulleys A and B can support a maximum force of 1.2 kN, all other cables can support a maximum force of 2.2 kN, and bar CE can support a maximum comressive force of 2.6 kN, determine the largest weight W that may be lifted.
Note that bar CE is a two force member which can support a force along its longitudinal axis.

9. A small peg P rests on a spring that is contained inside the smooth pipe. When the spring is compressed so that s = 0.15 m, the spring exerts anupward force of 60 N on the peg. Determine the point of attachmentA (x, y, 0) of cord PA so that the tension in cords PB and PC equals 30 N and 50 N, respectively.
