Let tension member EF be added to the structure in Figure E5.12 as indicated in Figure P5.60. All members are aluminum, for which E = 72 GPa. Members BC, CD, and DE each have cross-sectional area of 900 mm2. The remaining members have cross-sectional area of 150 mm2. Load magnitudes are P = 10 kN and Q = 5 kN. Determine the axial force in member EF and deflection of point E in the direction of force P.
