Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
So , i start by drawing the FBD at F . I have 10kN point downwards , so the reaction is 10kN upwards , so it's in equilibrium . But , i really have no idea how the author get the reaction 15kN ( in tension) pointing to the left and to the right . Can someone explain about it ? ( i have draw the FBD at E inside the second diagram)
