Problem 1: Make a MatLab program for the following Problem.
For the bar subjected to the linear varying axial load shown in Figure, determine the nodal displacements and axial stress distribution using (a)three equal-length elements and (b) five equal-length elements. Let \( A=2\) in.\(^{2}\) and \( E=30\times 10^{6}\mathrm{psi}\). Compare the finite element solution with an exact solution. (write the matlab program/code for this question please)
