Number of unknown internal forces in each member of a rigid jointed plane frame is

A. 1

B. 2

C. 3

D. 6

Answer: Option C

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The correct answer is Option C: 3.
Here's why:
In a rigid jointed plane frame, each member is subjected to three internal forces:
* Axial Force: The force acting along the longitudinal axis of the member (tension or compression).
* Shear Force: The force acting perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the member.
* Bending Moment: The internal moment that causes bending in the member.
Therefore, there are three unknown internal forces in each member of a rigid jointed plane frame.

    Member force for plane frame is 3 & space frame is 6

    Shear Force,axial Force nd bending moment so we may can say every rigid jointed plan frame has three unknown forces...
