Gquestions 1 - 4 compute forces in the members of the 2d truss below. the truss has an overall height of 4 meters and an overall length of 12 meters (there are 8 members along the bottom which each are 1.5 meters long). if the member is in compression, use a negative sign in the answer to indicate compression. work in units of kj for forces but do not enter units. determine the force in member kj. kj =

FKJ = 0    (It does not work).

Explanation:

The truss has an overall height of 4 meters and an overall length of 12 meters (there are 8 members along the bottom which each are 1.5 meters long). If the member is in compression, use a negative sign in the answer to indicate compression. Work in units of kN for forces but do not enter units. Determine the force in member KJ.

Ax = 0    ⇒   Ix = 0

∑ MA = 0   (counterclockwise +)   ⇒   - 10*3 – 6*9 – 6*10.5 + Iy*12 = 0  

⇒  Iy = 12.25 N  (↑)

∑ Fy = 0   (↑)  

Ay – 10 – 6 - 6 + Iy = 0      ⇒    Ay = 10 + 6 + 6 - 12.25      ⇒    Ay = 9.75 N (↑)

∑ MK = 0   (counterclockwise +)   ⇒  - FHI*4 + Iy*3 = 0  

⇒  FHI = (Iy*3) / 4 = (12.25*3) / 4

⇒  FHI = + 9.1875 N  

Node I:  

∑ Fx = 0   (→)  

FRI*Cos (θ) - FHI = 0     ⇒   FRI = FHI / Cos (θ) = 9.1875 / (3/5) = 15.3125 N

⇒   FRI = - 15.3125 N

Now, for the section in the figure 2 shown we have

∑ Fx = 0   (→)

⇒   FKJ + FRI*Cos (θ) - FHI = 0    

⇒    FKJ = FHI - FRI*Cos (θ) = 9.1875 - 15.3125*(3/5)

⇒   FKJ = 0    (It does not work).

“when two plates carrying continents collide, the continental crust buckles and rocks pile up, creating towering mountain ranges. when an ocean plate collides with another ocean plate or with a plate carrying continents, one plate will bend and slide under the other. this process is called subduction. “ i found this on google i hope it
