Question: 1 . A steel bar has a square cross section and carries an axial load in tension of ( 5 , 0 0 0

1. A steel bar has a square cross section and carries an axial load in tension of \(5,000\mathrm{~N}\). The cross section has a side length of 20 mm . The bar is \(1,000\mathrm{~mm}\) long.
a. Make a detailed sketch of a section of the bar showing the coordinate system and the load. This should fit a space no less than 2" high by 4" wide (50 mm by 100 mm ). For the force carried as an internal load this is a free body diagram. Also make a sketch of the cross section showing the dimensions. This should fit a space no less than 3" by 3"(75 mm by 75 mm ).(10 pts)
b. What is the cross section area, and what is the normal stress in the bar? (15 pts)
c. What is the deflection (change in length) due to this load? (10 pts)
