3.) The bent rod is supported at A by a properly aligned journal bearing, atD by a ball and socket joint, and at B by means of cable BC. The bearing at A is capable of exerting force components only in the x and y directions; it does not resist any moments

a) set up the 6 equilibrium equations (force and moment) necessary ro solve for the different reactions at A and D as well as the tension in cable BC
