Question

What is the normal stress in the bar if P=13 kN and​ A = 559 mm2? Calculate your answer to 1 decimal place, and don't include the negative sign in your answer (already there).

Answer: - (negative)_________ M Pa. 



 

**Problem Statement:**

What is the normal stress in the bar if \( P = 13 \, \text{kN} \) and \( A = 559 \, \text{mm}^2 \)? Calculate your answer to 1 decimal place, and don't include the negative sign in your answer (already there).

**Answer:**

- (negative) _______ MPa.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram illustrates a cylindrical bar under axial compression. The bar is subjected to a compressive force \( P \) at both ends. The area of cross-section where the force applies is labeled \( A \), and the compressive force \( P \) applied results in normal stress denoted by \( \sigma \). 

The normal stress (\( \sigma \)) is depicted as distributed across the cross-sectional area, calculated using the formula:

\[
\sigma = \frac{P}{A}
\]

Where:
- \( P \) is the compressive load (in this case, 13 kN),
- \( A \) is the cross-sectional area (559 mm\(^2\)).

The bar shows both top and bottom arrows pointing inward, indicating the direction of the compressive force.
