When the 20-kip load is applied to joint (B) of the truss in Figure P8.9, support (A)

Question:

When the 20-kip load is applied to joint \(B\) of the truss in Figure P8.9, support \(A\) settles vertically downward \(\frac{3}{4}\) in. and displaces \(\frac{1}{2}\) in. horizontally to the right. Determine the vertical displacement of joint \(B\) due to all effects. The area of all bars \(=2 \mathrm{in} .^{2}\), and \(E=30,000\) kips/in. \({ }^{2}\).
