A load of P = 114 kN is supported by a structure consisting of rigid bar ABC, two identical solid bronze [E = 116 GPa] rods, and a solid
steel [E=192 GPa] rod, as shown. The bronze rods (1) each have a diameter of 19 mm and they are symmetrically positioned relative
to the center rod (2) and the applied load P. Steel rod (2) has a diameter of 28 mm. All bars are unstressed before the load P is applied;
however, there is a 1.5-mm clearance in the bolted connection at B. Assume L₁ = 2.4 m and L₂ = 1.5 m. Determine:
(a) the normal stresses in the bronze and steel rods (01, 02).
