The truss shown below represents the upper part of a power transmission line tower. a) Write a Matlab program to determine the reaction forces and force in each member located above HJ to at least 5 significant figures. Identify which force corresponds to which member and which members are in tension and which are in compression. Include a drawing of the portion of the truss being analyzed and a write up of the equilibrium equations used in your program. Check your solution by verifying that the entire structure above HJ taken as a free body is in equilibrium. b) Repeat part (a) but assume that the cable hanging from point A has fallen. 2.21 m- 1.60 m B To *2.21 m F 10.60 m 10.60 m C E 1.2 kN V1.2 kN 1.20 m H L $0.60 m 10.60 m -2.97 m K 1.2 kN 1.20 m N O 1.2 kN $0.60 m $0.60 m O B 1.2 kN 1.2 kN S
