NORMAL TENSION. A steel tape having a cross-sectional area of 0.06 cm2 and a modulus of elasticity of 2.0x106 kg/cm2, weighs 0.03 kg/m. Its length is 30.00 m when standardized at a pull of 5 kg and supported throughout its length. Determine the tension at which the effect of sag will be eliminated by the elongation of the tape due to increased tension.

NEED ANSWER ASAP!! A so-called "trapeze bar" in a hospital room provides a means for patients to exercise while in bed (see figure). The bar is 2.1m long and has a cross section in the shape of a regular octagon. The design load is 1.6kN applied at the midpoint of the bar, and the allowable bending stress is 240 MPa. Determine the minimum height h of the bar. Round to one decimal place. (Assume that the ends of the bar are simply supported and that the weight of the bar is negligible.) hmin=___mm
