Problem 4 Consider a hot air balloon shown in the figure. The balloon is supported by cables AB, AC and AD. Suppose the force carried by cable AD, FAD is 800 N. The weight of the balloon is neglected. (a) Draw free body diagram of the hot air balloon at point A. (b) Determine the unit vectors along AB, AC 15 m and AD (c) Use the equilibrium equations to 2.5m D 0 determine the forces carried by cables AB and AC, and the vertical lift force applied on the balloon at point A. To 3 m
