Question: The rigid platform in the figure is negligible (2 blocks and rests on two steel bars, each 200 mm long. The middle bar is bronze

The rigid platform in the figure is negligible (2 blocks and rests on two steel bars, each 200 mm long. The middle bar is bronze and 199.80 mm long. Calculate the pressure in the bronze bar after the central load P = 350 kN For each steel bar the area is 1000 mm 2 and E = 200 GPa. For a bronze rod, the area is 2000 mm2 and *.E = 120 GPa
