A bar having a cross-sectional area of 0.50 in^2 carries axial loads applied at the positions shown. Compute the deformation of each segment and the total deformation of the bar. E = 10 x 10^6 psi. Assume that the bar is suitably braced to prevent buckling. (For the deformation, indicate if elongation or contraction.)
