3. The image below depicts a truss structure used to lift Mini Cooper S Roadsters. As can be seen the weight of the vehicle (2,800 lb.) is attached to the structure at joint D and directed in the negative z-direction. The coordinates for the joints (assumed to be of the ball and socket type) can be found in the table below. Determine the forces in each truss member by developing a system of linear equations and using the solve command in Sage to find the solution. - HINT: Isolate joint D and draw a free body diagram. By summing the forces in the x, y, and z directions you will obtain a linear system of three equations and three unknowns. Joint Location (0,-2,5) (0,3,5) (0,0,0) (6,0,4) OF хX
