From the chapter: Applied Mechanics and Structures I: Engineering Mechanics and Mechanics of Materials

At an unloaded joint of a plane truss, three members meet and two of them are collinear. The force in the third member is

Show the answer and why

Answer: A.

Resolving perpendicular to the two collinear members, only the third member has a component in that direction, so its force must be zero. Zero-force members are spotted this way before any arithmetic; they are still needed for stability and to carry loads in other cases.
