Rigid bar ABCD is loaded and supported as shown. Steel [E = 28800 ksi] bars (1) and (2) are unstressed before the load P is applied. Bar (1) has a cross-sectional area of 0.62 in.2 and bar (2) has a cross-sectional area of 0.3 in.2. After load P is applied, the strain in bar (1) is found to be 610 μe. Assume L₁=59 in., L2=98 in., a=39 in., b=26 in., and c=24 in. Determine: (a) the stresses in bars (1) and (2). (b) the vertical deflection VD of point D on the rigid bar. (c) the load P.
