### Problem 6-46

The truss supports a vertical load of 600 N. Determine the force in members \( BC \), \( BG \), and \( HG \) as the dimension \( L \) varies. Plot the results of \( F \) (ordinate with tension as positive) versus \( L \) (abscissa) for \( 0 \leq L \leq 3 \, \text{m} \).

#### Diagram Explanation

- The truss is a framework consisting of multiple triangular units.
- The members of the truss are labeled \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), \( D \), \( E \), \( G \), \( H \), and \( I \).
- The vertical load of 600 N is applied at point \( D \).
- Heights indicated in the diagram show a vertical measurement of 3 meters from point \( E \) to \( D \).
- \( L \) represents the variable horizontal dimension between points \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), \( and E \).

The task involves calculating the forces in specific truss members as the span \( L \) changes, and graphing these forces with respect to \( L \).
