Problem 3: Four-Force Equilibrium Knowing the forces in members A and C, determine the force of B and D, assuming the system is in equilibrium. A structural joint is held in equilibrium by four forces acting along different members. • Member A applies a force of 4 kN at an angle of 60° above the positive x-axis. • Member C applies a force of 2 kN horizontally to the left along the x-axis. • Member B applies an unknown force along the horizontal direction. • Member D applies an unknown force at an angle of 45° above the negative x-axis. Determine the forces in members B and D, assuming the system is in static equilibrium. 4 kN 2 kN C 45° A D 60° FB B
