Question: Question 3 ( 3 5 Points ) Members A B and BCDE are axially rigid frame members connected with an internal hinge at B ,

Question 3(35 Points)
Members AB and BCDE are axially rigid frame members connected with an internal hinge at B, and BC is a truss member. EI for AB and BCDE are given as 1000kN.m2. There is a clockwise couple moment at D(10kN.m), an unknown downward force at C(P), and a distributed load (1.kNm) on AB. The downward deflections at B and C are measured as 0.01m and 0.02m, respectively, as shown in the figure.
Calculate (hint: in the listed order)
a) Rotation at D.(15 points)
b) EA' of the truss member. (10 points)
c) External load P acting at C.(10 points)
