Question:

For the truss in Figure P8.4, compute

(a) the vertical displacement of joint \(C,(b)\) the horizontal displacement of joint \(C\), and \((c)\) the horizontal displacement of joint \(D\). Members \(A B, B C\), and \(C D\) have area \(=1 \mathrm{in} .^{2}\), and members \(A E, E D, B E\), and \(C E\) have area \(=0.25\) in. \(^{2}\), and \(E=10,000 \mathrm{ksi}\).
