1. replacing \"ohms\" with \"ohm\"  case insensitive

2. replacing '-' with ' '

The diagram shows the free body diagram of a joint in a truss which is supporting a load, $F$. In the FBD the direction (sense) of forces $A$ and $B$ are assumed, so may not be correct.

\n

Given: $F = \\var{qty(magF,unit)}$ and $C = \\var{(qty(abs(magC),unit))}$

\n
    \n
  1. Draw draw a neat, labeled free body diagram representing the situation.
  2. \n
  3. Write two equilibrium equations, symbolically, based on your free body diagram.
  4. \n
  5. Solve your equations to determine the magnitudes of forces $A$ and $B$ necessary for equilibrium.
  6. \n
  7. Indicate whether forces $A$ and $B$ are in tension or compression.
  8. \n
\n

", "advice": "

Draw a free body diagram, then write two equilibrium equations:

\n

$\\Sigma F_x = 0 \\qquad\\Sigma F_y = 0$

\n

Solve them simultaneously for unknown magnitudes $A$ and $B$.

\n

Answers:

\n

$A = \\var{qty(precround(abs(magA),1),unit)}$ {if(magA=0,'',if(magA>0,'Tension','Compression'))}

\n

$B = \\var{qty(precround(abs(magB),1),unit)}$ {if(magB=0,'',if(magB>0,'Tension','Compression'))}
