Question Details:
Sorry there is a member AC not show in my drawing.
F=(-200i +400j), find the forces in each memeber.
A B and E are ball and sockets.
I am thinking I will start with the known force then move on to C.
when I move to C I will have one know force TDC, then I can sum i,j,k and get thier forces.
FCB, FCE, FAC are in the directions of the i,j,k so they would only have one force.
I guesse my main question is this a correct way of doing this?
