Four steel bars jointly support a mass of 25 x 103 kg. Initially the temperature is 250C. Bars A and D have a cross-sectional area of 480 mm2. For bars B and C, the cross-sectional area is 360 mm2. Determine the elongation of bar A when the temperature becomes 600C. Also, find the axial stress developed in bar C. Use E = 200 GPa and α = 11.7 x 10-6 m/ (m0C).
