Transcribed Image Text:**Text:**
Portions of a \(\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2}\)-in. square bar have been bent to form the two machine components shown. Knowing that the allowable stress is 18 ksi, determine the maximum load that can be applied to each component.
**Diagrams Description:**
Two diagrams (a) and (b) show different bent components of a square bar. Both components are subjected to forces \( P \) and \( P' \) acting horizontally in opposite directions on the ends of the bar.
- Diagram (a): The component has a U-shaped bend with the forces applied on the horizontal arms of the U-shape.
- Diagram (b): This component appears to be an S-bend, where the forces are similarly applied to the ends.
Each diagram includes the square cross-section of \(\frac{1}{2}\)-in. to provide context for the stress calculations.
**Analysis Prompt:**
The maximum load that can be applied to component (a) is \(\_\_\_\_\_\) lb.
The maximum load that can be applied to component (b) is \(\_\_\_\_\_\) lb.
