Knowing that P is 30 kN, applied to both sides of the bar at B and Q is 28 kN, applied to the bar at C as shown. What is the internal normal force acting on a vertical cross-section passing through the bar between points B and C? Express your answer in Newtons (not kN), to the nearest whole Newton, taking tension as positive and compression as negative.
