Chapter 6, Problem 24P

Determine the force in members GE, GC, and BC of the truss as shown below. Indicate whether the members are in tension or compression   OPTION:(MULTI CORRECT(MAY BE)): 1.Force in Member BC is about 800 N Compressive 2.Force in Member GE is about 800 N Compression 3.Force in Member GC is about 500 N Tensile 4.Force in Member GC is about 600 N Tensile 5.Force in Member GE is about 700 N Compressive 6.Force in Member BC is about 900 N Compressive 7.Force in Member GC is about 500 N Compressive 8.Force in Member BC is about 900 N Tensile 9.Force in Member BC is about 800 N Tensile 10Force in Member GE is about 700 N Tensile 11.Force in Member GE is about 800 N Tensile 12.Force in Member GC is about 600 N Compressive
