1. Determine the average normal stress in each wire when W = 50kN. The cross sectional areas of the wires are 400mm2 and 200mm2 for wires AB and AC, respectively. 2. Determine the largest weight W which can be supported by the two wires shown. The stresses in wires AB and AC are not to exceed 100MPa and 150MPa, respectively and the cross sectional areas of the wires are 400mm2 and 200mm2 for wires AB and AC, respectively. 3. For the TRUSS shown, calculate the stresses in members DF, CE, and BD. The cross-sectional area of each member is 1200mm2. Indicate tension (T) or compression (C).
