Question: The bracket is held to the wall using three A - 3 6 steel bolts at B , C , and D . Each bolt

The bracket is held to the wall using three A-36 steel bolts at B,C, and D. Each bolt has a diameter of 0.8 in and an unstretched length of 2 in.
Part A
If a force of P=500lb is placed on the bracket as shown, determine how far, s, the top bracket at bolt D moves avay from the wall. For the calculation, assume that the bolts carry no shear; rather, the vertical force of 500 lb is supported by the toe at A. Also, assume that the wall and bracket are rigid. A greatly exaggerated deformation of the bolts is shown in the figure.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include appropriate units.
