Question: Two structural links are connected at the origin O . One has a 1 kN applied force and the other an unknown compressive force F

Two structural links are connected at the origin O. One has a 1 kN applied force and the
other an unknown compressive force F2. The origin O is also supported by the 2 kN
tension in a cable and the unknown force in another rope OA.
Find:
a) The compressive force F2 and the force on the rope OA given that the system is in
static equilibrium.
(When youre finding F2 and the unknown force in rope OA can you show step-by-step the algebraic process when solving for the unknown variables.)
