The bar is connected to the support using a pin having a

diameter of $d=1in.$ The allowable tensile stress for the bar

is $({}_t{)}_{\text{a}\text{l}\text{l}\text{o}\text{w}}=19$ksi, and the allowable bearing stress

between the pin and the bar is $({}_b{)}_{\text{a}\text{l}\text{l}\text{o}\text{w}}=28$ksi. Assume

the hole in the bar has the same diameter as the pin. $($

Part A

Determine the dimensions $w$ and $t$ so that the gross area of the cross section is $wt=2i{n}^2$ and the load $P$ is a maximum.

Enter your answers in inches to three significant figures separated by a comma.

$w,t=$

in$.$

Part B

What is this maximum load?

Express your answer in kilopounds to three significant figures.

$P_{\text{m}\text{a}\text{x}}=,$ kip
