2. Draw the free-body diagram of the truss that is supported by the cable AB and pin C. Draw the free-body diagram of cable AB. Determine the equations of static equilibrium for the truss. Determine the reaction forces (magnitudes and directions) at points A and C if T = 6 kN. Also determine the reaction force (magnitude and direction) at point B.

Step 1
To draw the free-body diagram of the truss, we need to consider all the forces acting on it. The truss is supported by the cable AB and pin C. The weight of the truss can be represented by a downward force at its center of gravity. Additionally, there may be Show more…

(II) A heavy load $M g=66.0 \mathrm{kN}$ hangs at point $\mathrm{E}$ of the single cantilever truss shown in Fig. $70 .$ (a) Use a torque equation for the truss as a whole to determine the tension $F_{\mathrm{T}}$ in the support cable, and then determine the force $\vec{\mathbf{F}}_{\mathrm{A}}$ on the truss at pin A. (b) Determine the force in each member of the truss. Neglect the weight. of the trusses, which is small compared to the load.
