Question: 2 . Two horizontal 5 N forces are applied to pin B of the assembly shown. Each of the three pins at A , B

2. Two horizontal 5 N forces are applied to pin B of the assembly shown. Each of the three pins at A, B, and C has the same diameter d .
A. Solve this problem analytically.
B. Write a Excel formulation to calculate for values of d from 0.50 to 1.50 mm , using 0.05 mm . increments,
(1) the maximum value of the average normal stress in member \( A B \),
(2) the average normal stress in member \( B C \),
(3) the average shearing stress in pin A ,
(4) the average shearing stress in pin C,
(5) the average bearing stress at \( A \) in member \( A B \),
(6) the average bearing stress at C in member BC ,
(7) the average bearing stress at \( B \) in member \( B C \).
C. Check your program by comparing the values obtained for \(\mathrm{d}=0.8\mathrm{~mm}\)
D. Use this program to find the permissible values of the diameter \( d \) of the pins, knowing that the allowable values of the normal, shearing, and bearing stresses for the steel used, are respectively, \(22\mathrm{MPa},13\mathrm{MPa}\), and 36 MPa .
E. Solve part D assuming that a new design is being investigated, in which the thickness and width of the two members are changed, respectively, form 0.5 to 0.3 mm and from 1.8 to 2.4 mm .
