The three bar assemblage is shown in Fig.(i). A force of 2500 N is applied in the x direction at node 2. The length of each element is 750 mm. Take E=4 x 105 N/mm² and A= 600 mm² for elements 1 and 2. Take E=2x105 N/mm² and A = 1200 mm² for element 3. Nodes 1 and 4 are fixed. -'0' 11/ Calculate the following: (i) Global stiffness matrix.
