Question:

Two bars AD and DG are connected by a pin at D and by a spring AG. Knowing that the spring is 300 mm long when un-stretched and that the constant of the spring is 5 kN/m, determine the value of x corresponding to equilibrium when a 900-N load is applied at E as shown.



200 mm 400 mm 900 NY 200 mm 200 mm 200 mm
