                A load W=2 kN is applied vertically to joint C of truss ABCDE as indicated. You will use the method of joints to obtain the axial forces in the bars and reactions at the supports A, E . 
We start with the classification of the degrees of freedom as "free" or "constrained".
From the geometry of the truss, we see that we have:
Free DOF x and y at B, C, and D.
Constrained DOF x and y at A and E .
Question 1: Use MATLAB to find the axial forces in the bar.
Order the vector {X} of unknown axial forces in the bars as:

    I don't know physics ... but I know you must wait for a physics teacher to come online. Posting under PLEASE REPLY will get you nowhere.
