Both portions of the rod ABC are made of an aluminum for which E = 70 GPa. Knowing that the magnitude of P is 4 kN, determine (a) the value of Q so that the deflection at A is zero, (b) the corresponding deflection of B.
Fig. P2.19 and P2.20
a)

The value of (Q) when the deflection at A is zero.
Answer to Problem 19P
The value of (Q) when the deflection at A is zero is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The Young’s modulus of the aluminium (E) is
The force at the point A (P) is
The force at the point B is Q.
The diameter of the rod AB
