When an axial load is applied to the ends of the bar shown in the figure, the total elongation of the bar between joints A and C is 0.22 in. In segment (2), the normal strain is measured as 1,900 μin./in. Assume L₁ = 47 in. and L₂ = 91 in. Determine (a) the elongation of segment (2). (b) the normal strain in segment (1) of the bar. Answers: (a) in.₂ = (b) Ex = (1) L₁ i B (2) L2 in. pin/in.
