Determine the force in members FE, FB, and BC of the truss and state if the members are in tension or compression. After sectioning the truss, solve for each force directly using a single equilibrium equation to obtain each force. Assume that all joints are pin connected, P1 = 500 lb and P2 = 1000 lb Express your answer in kilopounds to three significant figures. Enter negative value in the case of compression and positive value in the case of tension.

a) Force FE 

b) Force FB 

c) Force BC
