The rigid bar is supported by the two short white spruce wooden posts and a spring. If each of the posts has an unloaded length of 1 m and a cross-sectional area of 600 mm2, and the spring has a stiffness of k = 2 MN>m and an unstretched length of 1.02 m, determine the vertical displacement of A and B after the load is applied to the bar
Problem 4-63The rigid bar is supported by the two short white spruce wooden posts and a spring. If eachof the posts has an unloaded length of 1 m and a cross-sectional area of 600 mm , and thespring has a stiffness of k = 2 MN/m and an unstretched length of 1.02 m, determine thevertical displacement of A and B after the load is applied to the bar Step-by-step solution Step 1 of 4 Draw a free body diagram.
