3- The rods 1,2, and 3 shown below are welded together, mounted between two rigid walls and subjected to the two forces shown at joints B and C. Rods 1 and 3 are of the same length, L1=L3=1.2m and L2=1.5m. Rods 1 and 3 are made from a material with E=50 GPa . Rod 2 is made from a material with E=30GPa. The cross sections are given by: A1=A3=0.01m2 and A2=0.025m2. Determine the displacements of joints B and C.
