A rectangular steel block is 4 inches long in the x direction, 3 inches long in the y direction, and 4 inches long in the z direction. The block is subjected to a triaxial loading of three uniformly distributed forces as follows: 48 kips tension in the x direction, 60 kips compression in the y direction, and 54 kips tension in the z direction. If ν = 0.30 and E = 29 × 106 psi, determine the single uniformly distributed load in the x direction that would produce the same deformation in the y direction as the original loading.

that would produce the same deformation in the y direction as the original
loading. Note provide a diagram/figure.
-Draw and label the diagram correctly, No diagram in the solution will be marked wrong.
-Shortcut solution will be marked wrong.
- Direction of the assumption of the equilibrium equation must be shown, no direction will be marked wrong.
