A concentrated load P is supported by two inclined bars as shown.  Bar (1) is made of cold-rolled red brass [E = 16,700 ksi; α = 10.4 × 10−6 /°F] and has a cross-sectional area of 0.205 in.2.  Bar (2) is made of 6061-T6 aluminum [E = 10,000 ksi; α = 13.1 × 10−6 /°F] and has a cross-sectional area of 0.370 in.2.  After load P has been applied and the temperature of the entire assembly has increased by 56°F, the total strain in bar (1) is measured as 1000 με (elongation).  Assume θ = 50° and β = 53°. (a) Determine the stress in bar (1). (b) Determine the force in bar (1).

A concentrated load P is supported by two inclined bars as shown.  Bar (1) is made of cold-rolled red brass [E = 16,700 ksi; α = 10.4 × 10−6 /°F] and has a cross-sectional area of 0.205 in.2.  Bar (2) is made of 6061-T6 aluminum [E = 10,000 ksi; α = 13.1 × 10−6 /°F] and has a cross-sectional area of 0.370 in.2.  After load P has been applied and the temperature of the entire assembly has increased by 56°F, the total strain in bar (1) is measured as 1000 με (elongation).  Assume θ = 50° and β = 53°.

(a) Determine the stress in bar (1).
(b) Determine the force in bar (1).
(c) Determine the magnitude of load P.
