Current Attempt in Progress Rigid bar ABC is supported by two aluminum alloy (E = 10,000 ksi) rods as shown below. The horizontal distance between rods (1) and (2) is a = 120 in. Rod (1) has a length of L₁ = 86 in. and a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 0.45 in.². Rod (2) has a length of L₂ = 84 in. and a cross-sectional area of A₂ = 0.75 in.². Rigid bar ABC is to remain horizontal under a load of P = 25 kips. Determine the distance x from joint A to the location of load P so that bar ABC remains horizontal. L₁ Answer: x = i (1) in. B (2) C L2
