Consider the truss shown in (Figure 1). Suppose that F1 = 60 kN and F2 = 20 kN .

Part A

Determine the force in member ED of the truss, and state if the member is in tension or compression.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter negative value in the case of compression and positive value in the case of tension.
 

Part B

Determine the force in member EH of the truss, and state if the member is in tension or compression.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter negative value in the case of compression and positive value in the case of tension.
 

Part C

Determine the force in member GH of the truss, and state if the member is in tension or compression.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter negative value in the case of compression and positive value in the case of tension.
