Question: Question 3 : ( 8 points ) A bar AB of modulus of elasticity 5 0 GPa and square cross section ( b b )

Question3: (8 points) A bar AB of modulus of elasticity 50 GPa and square cross section (bb) has a pinned supports at the base and top. The horizontal beam supporting a load F=100kN.
A.(2-points) Assume that the desired factor of safety with respeet to Euter-Buekling is 3.0, what is the required cross sectional area of the bar if a=0.8m.
B.(2-points) What is the required distance "a" if the bar is about to buckle and b=80mm?
C.(2-points) Find the normal stress in the bar (For the case in Question 3: Part B).
D.(2-points) Assume now that yield stress of the bar is p=4=25MPa, what should be done to prevent the plastic deformation of the bar? Support your suggestion with a logical solution (that is, give number that support your idea)!
