Question
The diagram illustrates a truss structure supported at points A, B, and E. There are two vertical forces acting on the structure: a 2 kN force at C and a 6 kN force at A. ### Diagram Explanation: - **Dimensions:** - The horizontal distance between each support (A to B and C to E) is 2 meters. - The vertical height between the supports is 1 meter (for the top horizontal member) and 2 meters (for the bottom diagonal member). - **Supports:** - Point A is pinned. - Point B is a rocker. - Point E is a roller support. - **Forces:** - A downward force of 2 kN is applied vertically at point C. - A downward force of 6 kN is applied vertically at point A. ### Problem Statement: Solve for the force magnitude and direction in member AB, to the nearest 0.01 kN.
