The rigid platform in Figure below has negligible mass and rests on two steel bars, each 250 mm long. The center bar is aluminum and 249.9 mm long. Compute the stress in the aluminum bar after the center load P = 400 kN has been applied. For each steel bar, the area is 1200 mm and E = 200 GPa. For the aluminum bar, the area is 2400 mm? and E = 70 GPa. %3D Steel Aluminum Steel

QZ/ The rigid platform in Figure below has negligible mass and rests on two steel bars, each 250 mm long. The center bar is aluminum and 249.9 mm long. Compute the stress in the aluminum bar after the center load P = 400 kN has been applied. For each steel bar, the area is 1200 mm® and E = 200 GPa. For the aluminum bar, the area is 2400 mm’ and E = 70 GPa.
Q2/ The rigid platform in Figure below has negligible mass and rests on two steel bars,
each 250 mm long. The center bar is aluminum and 249.9 mm long. Compute the
stress in the aluminum bar after the center load P = 400 kN has been applied. For
each steel bar, the area is 1200 mm? and E = 200 GPa. For the aluminum bar, the
area is 2400 mm' and E = 70 GPa.
