Answer:43.70 MPa

Explanation:

Given

mass of engine [tex] 700 lb \approx 317.515 kg[/tex]

diameter of cable [tex]0.375 in.\approx 9.525 mm[/tex]

[tex]A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=71.26 mm^2[/tex]

we know stress([tex]\sigma [/tex])[tex]=\frac{load\ applied}{area\ of\ cross-section}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma =\frac{317.515\times 9.81}{71.26\times 10^{-6}}=43.70 MPa[/tex]
