Question
A bridge truss extends x = 206 m across a river (shown in the figure below) where 8 = 39º. The structure is free to slide
horizontally to permit thermal expansion. The structural components are connected by pin joints, and the masses of the
bars are small compared with the mass of a 1340 kg car at the center. Calculate the force of tension or compression in each
structural component (in N).
