For the truss shown below, determine the force in Members JE and GF. Also clearly state which members of the truss are zero-force members. The truss supports a vertical (downward) force of 6 kN at Joint G, another vertical (downward) force of 6 kN at Joint F, a vertical (downward) force of 1.779 kN at Joint B, a vertical (downward) force of 0.8896 kN at Joint I, and a horizontal (to the right) force of 1.334 kN at Joint E. 1.779 KN B 0.8896kv H -1.5m-1.5m-1.5 m---1.5 m- 6 kN 6 kN 2 m 2 m 1,334 KN For the truss shown below, determine the force in Members JE and GF.
