Chapter 6, Problem 50P

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

Determine the force in AC, CB and AB member of the truss. State if the members are in tension or compression. 3 ft 2 ft 6 ft 500 lb

Use the method of joints to determine the force in each member of the truss shown. State whether the force is in tension or compression.
