3. The image below shows the tapered tail section of a fuselage. The stringers all have areas of \(0.5-\mathrm{in}^{2}\). The left (large) end of this section is attached (cantilevered) to the main section of the fuselage. The vertical and horizontal tail structures (housing the rudder and elevator) are attached to the right (small) end of this section. If a maneuver in flight causes a vertical force from the elevator and a horizontal force from the rudder as shown, determine the shear flows created in the skin panels at cross-section A-A (assume that the stringers carry all the bending loads). For the ease of comparing results, number your stringers clockwise starting at the top-most stringer.
