  1. The figure shows a pin-jointed plane truss Ioaded at the point M by hanging a mass of 100 kg. The member LN of the truss is subjected to a load of

    1. 0 Newton
    2. 490 Newtons in compression
    3. 981 Newtons in compression
    4. 981 Newtons in tension
Correct Option: A


Consider all forces at point L

Summation of all forces along x-direction, FLK = FLM
Summation of all forces along y-direction,
FLN = 0
