Consider the following axially loaded bar. The bar lengths, dimensions and loads are given below. Ignore self-weight. The figure is not to scale. The bar is in static equilibrium. Bar $\mathrm{BC}$ has a rectangular cross-section of 3 inches $\times 8$ inches normal to the load. The bar is made of steel with a modulus of elasticity of $29000\mathrm{ksi}$. Bar CD has a rectangular cross-section of 4 inches $\times 7$ inches normal to the load. The bar is made of steel with a modulus of elasticity of $29000\mathrm{ksi}$. Determine the axial force, stress and deformation as indicated below. Identify the sense (tension or compression). Enter all values as positive numbers below using the units given. The axial force in bar $\mathrm{BC}=$ k| The axial stress in bar $\mathrm{BC}=$ ksi The axial deformation in bar $\mathrm{BC}=$ in The axial force in bar $CD=$ The axial stress in bar $CD=$ ksi The axial deformation in bar $CD=$ in
