STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Uniformly Distributed Load = (Cable Tension for UDL*8*Sag of Cable at Midway between Supports)/(Cable Span)^2
q = (T_{cable udl}*8*f)/(L_span)^2
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Uniformly Distributed Load - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - Uniformly distributed Load (UDL) is a load that is distributed or spread across the whole region of an element whose magnitude of the load remains uniform throughout the whole element.
Cable Tension for UDL - (Measured in Newton) - Cable Tension for UDL is the total tension in cable for uniformly distributed load on cable.
Sag of Cable at Midway between Supports - (Measured in Meter) - Sag of Cable at Midway between Supports is vertical sag at midpoint of cable.
Cable Span - (Measured in Meter) - Cable Span is total length of cable in horizontal direction.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Cable Tension for UDL: 56.25 Kilonewton --> 56250 Newton (Check conversion here)
Sag of Cable at Midway between Supports: 5 Meter --> 5 Meter No Conversion Required
Cable Span: 15 Meter --> 15 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

q = (T_{cable udl}*8*f)/(L_span)^2 --> (56250*8*5)/(15)^2

Evaluating ... ...

q = 10000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

10000 Newton per Meter -->10 Kilonewton per Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

10 Kilonewton per Meter <-- Uniformly Distributed Load
