1. A Z-shaped rigid bar ABCD, shown in the figure, is 4. The triangular plate is deformed into the shape
suspended by a pin at B, and loaded by a vertical shown by the dashed line. Determine the normal
force P. At A, a 10-mm-diameter steel tie rod AF strain developed along edge BC and the average
connects the section to a firm ground support at F. shear strain at corner A with respect to the x and y
Use E = 200 GPa. Determine the vertical deflection axes.

7. The aluminum and bronze cylinders are centered 10. A solid circular rod that is 600 mm long and 20 mm
and secured between two rigid end-plates by in diameter is subjected to an axial force of P = 50
tightening the two steel bolts. There is no axial load kN. The elongation of the rod is d = 1.40 mm, and
in the assembly at a temperature of 50°F. Find the its diameter becomes d’ = 19.9837 mm. Determine
stress in the steel bolts when the temperature is the modulus of elasticity and the modulus of rigidity
increased to 200°F. Use the following data: of the material. Assume that the material does not
yield.
