Description: Each of two symmetric cables can sustain a maximum tension of 5000 lb. A uniform beam weighs 5000 lb. Hook $A$ is located 4 ft above the beam attachment points $B$ and $C$, which are each 3 ft from the center of the beam. Determine the shortest time possible to lift the beam from rest to a speed of 10 ft/s.
