SITUATION. As shown in the figure below, a rigid bar with negligible mass is pinned at O and attached to two vertical rods. Assume that the rods were initially stress-free. Allowable stress in steel is 120 MPa and in bronze is 60 MPa. For this problem, a = 1.8m; b = 1.3m; c = 1.7m. b P Steel: A=900 mm² Bronze: A=1200 mm² E= 83 GPa L= 2.0m E = 200 GPa L=1.5m What is the value of P without exceeding the allowable stress of bronze, in kN? O 161 O 174 O 145 124 4
