One end of the tailgate is connected to the truck with hinge, and supported by two cable when being opened. A stack of wood weighing Mw is placed on the edge of tailgate. Determine the average strain in the cable if both weigh causing each of the cable to elongates  = 0.25 mm. Note that the cable’s effective cross-sectional area is Ae = 11.0 mm2 and distance from the concentrated load due to Mw to the edge of tailgate that parallel to the hinge is dw = 460 mm
