Question: A rigid, non - deformable bar ABC is held by pin joint at A and connected to two deformable rods at B and C .

A rigid, non-deformable bar ABC is held by pin joint at A and connected to two deformable rods at B and C. All internal connections are pin joints. A 200 kN force is applied as shown in diagram. Use the following parameters:
Cross-sectional area: A1=A2=300mm2
Elastic modulus: ,E1=E2=200GPa
Determine the following:
a. whethe the assembly is ieterminafe or indeterminate (circle one).(5 points)
b. axial stress in bars (1) and (2).(20 points)
c. show how the elongation of the bars are related (mark the equation) and calculate the elongation of ?bar(2)(10 points)
A rigid, non - deformable bar ABC is held by pin
