Part 2: Theory Calculation: S1 S2 S3 S1 S2 S3 S1 S2 S3

This document presents the theoretical calculations to determine the tensile forces in three structural members (S1, S2, S3) of a frame under increasing loads from 5N to 25N. Equations are set up and solved for the forces in each member based on the geometry and load information provided. Tables show the calculated tensile force in each member increases linearly with the applied load. Graphs are plotted comparing the theoretical and experimental force-load relationships for members S1 and S2, which increase with load, and S3, which experiences increasing compression.
